Previous works nearby have demonstrated that sediments preserved in lake basins hold the potential to serve as valuable archives of paleoseismicity. Correspondingly, a high-resolution chirp seismic reflection survey was conducted in Lac Simard, with results showing four acoustic facies (Af-1 to Af-4) within two stratigraphic successions (SS-1 and SS-2). The lowermost SS-1 is dominated by high-amplitude, laminated Af-2, interpreted as lateglacial varves deposited by suspension from primarily overflows and interflows during glacial lake ponding following deglaciation. Suspension deposition of Af-2 was episodically interrupted by stacked, chaotically bedded, weakly graded to opaque, channelled Af-3 interpreted as either debris flows or high-density turbidity currents. Presence of silt-clast breccias in Af-3 also suggests downslope collapse and reworking of varves from basin sidewalls. The overlying SS-2 is dominated by weakly reflective, laminated, high-frequency varved Af-4, suggesting a continuing seasonal control on postglacial sedimentation but with relative sediment starvation. A basin-wide erosional unconformity separating SS-1 and postglacial SS-2 records the abrupt drainage of glacial Lake Barlow-Ojibway around 8 000 years ago. Considering the history of lake floor disturbance in the region, mass flow facies Af-3 may be seismogenic, and thus, have regional tectonic significance. However, we cannot rule out the possibility of mass flows triggered by abrupt inflows of meltwater and sediment from a highly dynamic retreating Laurentide Ice Sheet prone to surging.","PeriodicalId":9567,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78400587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The initial substratum colonized and subsequently overgrown by the favositid was a large solitary rugose coral, and outward growth resulted in overgrowth of multiple macrofossils, including relatively long portions of large-diameter (probably camerate) crinoid columns. The crinoid columns, which likely represent portions of robust, recumbent dististelar attachment structures, are otherwise known almost entirely from isolated columnals at the collection locality and similar high-energy biostromal lithofacies in the Edgecliff Member elsewhere. One of the crinoid columns is encrusted by a stenolaemate bryozoan containing several examples of a parasitic bioclaustration structure similar to Catellocaula. Hence, the composite coral–crinoid–bryozoan association contains two forms of bioimmuration: preservation of the relatively intact crinoid columns via overgrowth and eventual incorporation into the base of the tabulate coral and preservation of the outline of the bioclaustrated organism (potentially an ascidian tunicate) via embedment in the bryozoan. This specimen serves as a testament to the diversity of biotic interactions and preservational mechanisms that occurred in Paleozoic carbonate build-ups.","PeriodicalId":9567,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135727164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Geological and petrographic studies show that the Xizhelimu diorite is zoned: the central lithofacies zone is composed of medium-fine-grained monzodiorite and quartz diorite, and the marginal lithofacies zone is fine-grained diorite. The zircon U-Pb dating results show that the ages of the central and marginal facies are 133.5 ± 1.9 Ma and 133.4 ± 1.4 Ma, respectively. The whole-rock rare earth and trace element characteristics of the Xizhelimu diorite show an O-type adakite affinity. Combining the analysis of zircon Hf isotope composition (εHf(t) values of +7.7 to +10.0), the geochemical features of whole rock, and the results of partial melting modeling we suggest that the parental magma of the Xizhelimu diorite was derived from the partial melting of altered oceanic crust mixing with subducting sediments at shallow depths. In the early stage of Early Cretaceous, the Xizhelimu diorite originated in an extensional setting, mainly related to the closure of the western part of the Mongol–Okhotsk Ocean. The upwelling asthenospheric flow in this extensional setting induced partial melting of the paleo-oceanic crust to form the parental magma of the Xizhelimu diorite.","PeriodicalId":9567,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences","volume":"57 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74200772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The model is characterized by high resistivity (> 100 Ωm) in the upper 6-7 km, implying relatively dry, unaltered rock. Within this resistive layer, localized conductors are observed in the upper 2 km beneath Pylon Peak and Fish Creek, corresponding to low-permeability clay-rich layers, acting as caprocks to geothermal fluids below. Beneath the resistive upper crust, there is a large conductor at ~5-15 km below sea level with an average resistivity of ~3 Ωm. Laboratory experiments of melt resistivity and petrological data from erupted volcanic rocks were used to interpret the model. The magma body (deep conductor) is inferred to have a minimum volume of ~2×10^12 m^3 comprising ~18-32% dacitic-to-trachydacitic melt with ~6-8 wt% H2O at a temperature of ~800-900ºC. This is below the melt fraction of an eruptible magma body. Resolution tests suggest it might be regional in extent, not localized beneath Mount Meager. There are fluid pathways from the northern part of the magma body, up toward Mount Meager and nearby fumaroles. This model is a significant advancement from its predecessors, created 20-40 years ago, providing the first deep 3-D image of this volcanic system.

Beds of massive diamictons, and glaciolacustrine sediments containing parallel reflections, crop out alternately from west to east, resulting from an oscillatory ice retreat. These beds correlate with the Port Stanley Drift (Port Bruce phase) and Wentworth Drift (Mackinaw phase) exposed in nearby shore bluffs and onshore moraines. The Port Bruce glacier and earlier readvances formed ice tongues and ice shelves in the central basin. Diamicton layers, some with debris flows, constitute the Port Stanley Till (offshore units M and O). A glaciolacustrine unit N was deposited during Port Bruce glacier recessions. Glaciolacustrine unit P lies between Port Bruce unit O and the Mackinaw Wentworth Till, unit Q. A subsequent glaciolacustrine unit R overlaps unit Q. The onshore Galt and Moffat moraines, composed of Wentworth Till, correlate with ridges of the Norfolk moraine unit Q which extend across Lake Erie between the base of Long Point, Ontario, and Erie, Pennsylvania. The onshore Paris moraine appears to have been eroded on the wave-cut terrace and is evident offshore only near the south shore of Lake Erie.

All three are related to orogenic belts where oceans opened and later closed uniting new crustal partners. Great Slave basin differs from Kilhigok and Coronation basins in ways that have defied explanation. It lacks a passive-margin sequence and hosts two discrete igneous suites, separated by large-scale thrusting, occurring well after the adjacent paleocean had closed. Here we report U-Pb zircon geochronology by CA-ID-TIMS for a member of each suite to constrain the age and origin of post-collisional thrusting. A widespread pulse of mainly phreatic alkaline volcanism, coeval with renewed foredeep flexure, occurred at 1889.0±0.7 Ma (2σ internal error). A quartz-monzodiorite body, one of a belt-parallel chain of laccoliths that postdate thrusting, was emplaced at 1866.9±0.9 Ma. These ages bracket renewed foredeep sedimentation and thrusting that telescoped major facies zones and was rooted within the basin. The older age is 70 and 30−60 Myr younger than collision in Thelon and Taltson orogen, respectively. We attribute post-collisional thrusting and foredeep subsidence to ‘eduction’—the upward and outward ejection of partly-subducted crust—and postulate that the top of the ejected wedge was a normal-sense detachment fault projecting beneath Nonacho basin. We infer that eduction was triggered by slab failure, producing alkaline volcanism, and ended with delamination and laccolith emplacement. Eduction was facilitated by tradewind–driven erosion. Delamination was enabled by crustal transfer to the educted wedge, reducing footwall buoyancy. Slab-failure and/or delamination removed the passive margin.","PeriodicalId":9567,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86150570","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, zircon U–Pb ages, whole-rock geochemical and Sr–Nd–Hf isotopic compositions are presented. The Early Jurassic gabbros, diorite enclaves, granodiorites and granites ages range from 183 to 189 Ma. They are characterized by enrichment in LILEs and depletion in HFSEs. The gabbros are classified as low- and medium-K tholeiitic, granodiorites and granites are high-K calc-alkaline I-type, and diorite enclaves are calc-alkaline transitional series. The gabbros have zircon εHf(t) values of +6.81 to +9.89, whole-rock 87Sr/86Sr(i) = 0.7043-0.7044 and εNd(t) from +2.72 to +2.80. The diorite enclaves have zircons with εHf(t) values of +8.26 to +12.80, whole-rock 87Sr/86Sr(i) = 0.7051 and εNd(t) from +0.96 to +1.09. The granodiorites and granites have zircon εHf(t) values of +7.59 to +12.87, whole-rock 87Sr/86Sr(i) = 0.7042-0.7066 and εNd(t) from +2.33 to +2.61. These data indicate that gabbroic magmas were derived from partial melting of a depleted mantle wedge metasomatized by subduction-related fluids. The basaltic magma underplated and heated the juvenile crust, whereas the granodiorites and granites might be the product of fractional crystallization of a mixture of basaltic and felsic magmas or derived from partial melting of the juvenile lower crust. Our data constrain the petrogenesis of these Early Jurassic intrusive rocks which are attributed to subduction of the Paleo-Pacific Plate beneath Eurasia continent in northeastern China.","PeriodicalId":9567,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79906908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
