    Notes: [Auszug] In Table 1 the stratigraphy of the greenstone belts of the Tanzanian Craton (see Fig. 1) is compared with those of the Rhodesian and Kaapvaal cratons. The Kavirondian and Nyanzian systems, confined to the northern part of the Tanzanian Craton, are particularly well exposed near theTanzanian-Kenya ...

    Notes: Abstract The distribution, structural relations and ages of ophiolites and ophiolitic melanges in the Eastern Deserts of Egypt and north-east Sudan, and their relation to arc and post-arc magmatism, are used to infer the probable positions of sutures and the directions of obduction and subduction. The ages of the successive tectonic stages in the terranes decrease northwards, by about 100 Ma in the region discussed. Obduction was north-westwards. The obducted sheets of ophiolite and ophiolitic melange, extending about 500 km north from the Onib-Sol Flamed suture, may all represent a single back-arc basin. The direction of subduction is still not clearly proved: more geochemical evidence of arc-magmatic polarity is needed. The late tectonic north-westward thrusting, the NW - SE stretching lineation, the transpressional north-south Hamisama Shear Zone and the NW-SE sinistral Najd faults are all attributed to north-westward movement (present coordinates) of terranes towards the older craton west of the Nile. The Najd faults are interpreted as intracontinental transform faults.

    Notes: Summary The Tertiary and post-Tertiary chronology of faulting in the Gregory Rift Valley is discussed with particular reference to areas where Middle Pleistocene deposits have been mapped. It is concluded that while strong faulting occurred at the end of the Middle Pleistocene period, the main faulting was earlier. At least three pre-Middle Pleistocene phases of faulting are recognised; the maximum movements probably occurred in late Pliocene or earliest Pleistocene times.

    Notes: [Auszug] DEWEY AND SHACKLETON REPLY- We thank Thompson for his geochemical data and conclusions and agree that a successful model for the evolution of the Grampian tract must account for geochemical and petrological data. Clearly, from the perspective of incompatible element pattern recognition, the ...

    Notes: [Auszug] The 1985 Chinese/British expedition to the Tibetan Plateau attempted to solve the question of the origin of the very thick crustal rocks in this region. Continuing northwards movement of the Indian plate over the past 38 Myr has given rise to severe folding and thrust faulting, causing crustal ...

    Notes: [Auszug] According to the literature, the sequence, in simplified form, for the late Precambrian in the eastern desert is as follows8 (dates quoted are mostly Rb/Sr whole-rock ages, decay constants not being specified in the original publication): (6) Younger, post-tectonic granitoids (674-506 Myr BP)9. ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Seventeen "tectonic domains"1 were established photo -geologically and their distribution agrees with the known extent of the Tanganyika Shield and the Mozambique Orogenic Belt. The interpretation showed that it was possible to recognize photogeologically the following major features, most of which ...
