• Garnet growth and mineral geochronology constrains the diachronous Neoproterozoic convergent evolution of the southern Dom Feliciano Belt, Uruguay 

      Percival, Jack James; Konopásek, Jiří; Oyhantçabal, Pedro; Slama, Jiri; Anczkiewicz, Robert (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-05-15)
      The Dom Feliciano Belt of southern Brazil and Uruguay represents part of a larger Neoproterozoic orogenic system formed during the amalgamation of Western Gondwana. The hinterland and foreland domains in parts of the belt preserve deformation structures and metamorphic assemblages that developed during early crustal thickening from c. 650 Ma. However, the metamorphic history of the southern foreland, ...
    • Linking the basement geology along the Africa-South America coasts in the South Atlantic 

      Konopasek, Jiri; Slama, Jiri; Košler, Jan (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-05-13)
      The match of geological units of the dissected Kaoko-Dom Feliciano-Gariep orogenic system exposed along the coasts of the South Atlantic is poorly understood. Two suites of intrusive rocks crop out in the Angra Fria Bay area, a part of the Coastal Terrane of the Kaoko Belt in Namibia. U–Pb zircon dating of three samples from the younger suite provided ages of 574 ± 6, 586 ± 3 and 584 ± 7 Ma, similar ...
    • Long-lasting Cadomian magmatic activity along an active northern Gondwana margin: U–Pb zircon and Sr–Nd isotopic evidence from the Brunovistulian Domain, eastern Bohemian Massif 

      Soejono, Igor; Janoušek, Vojtěch; Žáčková, Eliška; Slama, Jiri; Konopasek, Jiri; Machek, Matěj; Hanžl, Pavel (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-11-03)
      Cadomian magmatic complexes of the Brunovistulian Domain crop out at the eastern termination of the Bohemian Massif. However, the age, nature and geotectonic affinity of some of pre-Variscan (meta-)igneous rock complexes from this domain are still unknown. Geochronological and geochemical study of the granitic rocks across the Brunovistulian Domain reveals new information about the timing and nature ...
    • Tectono-Metamorphic Evolution of the Northern Dom Feliciano Belt Foreland, Santa Catarina, Brazil: Implications for Models of Subduction-Driven Orogenesis 

      Percival, Jack James; Konopásek, Jiří; Anczkiewicz, Robert; Ganerød, Morgan; Slama, Jiri; Campos, Roberto Sacks de; Bitencourt, Maria de Fatima (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-27)
      The Dom Feliciano Belt in southern Brazil and Uruguay represents the western half of a Neoproterozoic orogenic belt located in the southern portion of the South Atlantic Neoproterozoic Orogenic System. Current interpretations are divided as to the nature of orogenesis in this belt, in part owing to lacking geochronological constraints. Metamorphosed and deformed supracrustal sequences of the Brusque ...
