    Detrital zircon ages and provenance of the Upper Paleozoic successions of Kotel’ny Island (New Siberian Islands archipelago) Victoria B. Ershova1,*, Andrei V. Prokopiev2, Andrei K.

PETERSBURG 199106, RUSSIA ABSTRACT Plate-tectonic models for the Paleozoic evolution of the Arctic are numerous and diverse. Our detrital zircon provenance study of Upper Paleozoic sandstones from Kotel’ny Island (New Siberian Island archipelago) provides new data on the provenance of clastic sediments and crustal affinity of the New Siberian Islands. Upper Devonian–Lower Carboniferous deposits yield detrital zircon populations that are consistent with the age of magmatic and metamorphic rocks within the Grenvillian-Sveconorwegian, Timanian, and Caledonian orogenic belts, but not with the Siberian craton. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test reveals a strong similarity between detrital zircon populations within Devonian–Permian clastics of the New Siberian Islands, Wrangel Island (and possibly Chukotka), and the Severnaya Zemlya Archipelago. These results suggest that the New Siberian Islands, along with Wrangel Island and the Severnaya Zemlya Archipelago, were located along the northern margin of Laurentia-Baltica in the Late Devonian–Mississippian and possibly made up a single tectonic block. Detrital zircon populations from the Permian clastics record a dramatic shift to a Uralian provenance. The data and results presented here provide vital information to aid Paleozoic tectonic reconstructions of the Arctic region prior to opening of the Mesozoic oceanic basins.

    New Geochronological Constraints on the Timing of Magmatism for the Bull Arm Formation, Musgravetown Group, Avalon Terrane, Northeastern Newfoundland

    Current Research (2017) Newfoundland and Labrador Department of Natural Resources Geological Survey, Report 17-1, pages 1-17 NEW GEOCHRONOLOGICAL CONSTRAINTS ON THE TIMING OF MAGMATISM FOR THE BULL ARM FORMATION, MUSGRAVETOWN GROUP, AVALON TERRANE, NORTHEASTERN NEWFOUNDLAND A.J. Mills, G.R. Dunning1, M. Murphy1 and A. Langille1 Regional Geology Section 1Department of Earth Sciences, Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. John’s, NL, A1B 3X5 ABSTRACT The Bull Arm Formation is one of the most areally extensive volcanic units in the Avalon Terrane of Newfoundland. His- torically, the age has been interpreted from the single previous U–Pb zircon age (570 +5/-3 Ma) obtained from a rhyolite flow on Wolf Island, where no contact relations are exposed. This rhyolite was later re-interpreted as the lower part of the overly- ing Rocky Harbour Formation but the initial interpretation as Bull Arm Formation had by then become entrenched in the lit- erature. New U–Pb zircon (CA-TIMS) geochronology results have been obtained for two rock samples from the volcanic-dom- inated Bull Arm Formation, Musgravetown Group, on the Bonavista Peninsula (Plate Cove volcanic belt) of northeastern Newfoundland, and one sample from the Isthmus that connects the Avalon Peninsula to the rest of the Island. A 40-cm-thick crystal-ash tuff near the base of the Plate Cove volcanic belt, at the roadcut east of Summerville, yielded an age of 592 ± 2.2 Ma. A lapilli tuff, located approximately 1800 m to the east, at the eastern margin of the volcanic belt, yielded an age of 591.3 ± 1.6 Ma.

    Elsevier Editorial System(tm) for Precambrian Research Manuscript Draft Manuscript Number: Title: AGES OF DETRITAL ZIRCONS (U/Pb, LA-ICP-MS) FROM THE LATEST NEOPROTEROZOIC - MIDDLE CAMBRIAN(?) ASHA GROUP AND EARLY DEVONIAN TAKATY FORMATION, THE SOUTH- WESTERN URALS: A TEST OF AN AUSTRALIA-BALTICA CONNECTION WITHIN RODINIA Article Type: SI:Precambrian Supercontinents Keywords: Urals, Detrital Zircon, Rodinia, Ediacaran, Baltica Corresponding Author: Prof. Nikolay Borisovich Kuznetsov, Ph.D. Corresponding Author's Institution: Geological Institute of Russian Academy of Science First Author: Nikolay B Kuznetsov, Ph.D. Order of Authors: Nikolay B Kuznetsov, Ph.D.; Josef G Meert, Ph.D.; Tatiana V Romanyuk, Ph.D. Abstract: Results from U/Pb-dating of detrital zircons (dZr) from sandstones of the Basu and Kukkarauk Fms. (Asha Group) of Ediacaran-Middle Cambrian(?) age along with the results obtained from the Early Devonian Takaty Fm. are presented. The age of the Asha Group is traditionally labeled as Upper Vendian in the Russian stratigraphic chart that overlaps with the Ediacaran in the International stratigraphic chart. The dZr whose ages fall within the age-interval of (500-750 Ma) are common in the Basu and Kukkarauk Fm. These ages are typical for crystalline complexes in the Pre- Uralides-Timanides orogen. The identification of zircons with this age range agrees with commonly adopted interpretations for the depositional origin of the Asha Group as a molasse resulting from the erosion of that orogenic belt. Based on the estimates of the youngest ages of dZr along with the tentative identification of inarticulate brachiopods in the Kukkarauk Fm., it appears that the upper part of the Asha Group may extend into the Middle Cambrian.

EMIG Abstract: The first descriptions of Lingula were made from then extant specimens by three famous French scientists: BRUGUIÈRE, CUVIER, and LAMARCK. The genus Lingula was created in 1791 (not 1797) by BRUGUIÈRE and in 1801 LAMARCK named the first species L. anatina, which was then studied by CUVIER (1802). In 1812 the first fossil lingulids were discovered in the Mesozoic and Palaeozoic strata of the U.K.

    Limestone Resources of Newfoundland and Labrador

    PROVINCE OF NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR DEPARTMENT OF MINES AND ENERGY MINERAL DEVELOPMENT DIVISION REPORT 74-2 LIMESTONE RESOURCES OF NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR by JOHN R. DeGRACE ST. JOHN’S, NEWFOUNDLAND 1974 CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE TABLE OF CONTENTS Accompanying maps Map 1, Map 2 and Map 3 can be viewed by clicking on each map number PUBLISHER'S NOTE Report 74-2, Limestone Resources of Newfoundland and Labrador by John R. DeGrace, being the only comprehensive study of the limestone resources of the province to date, is being reissued to provide the nec- essary background information to facilitate limestone exploration activities in the province. However, the format of the reissue has been changed from the original to conform to the format presently used by the Geological Survey. The report is being reprinted in its entirety without any updating or corrections whatso- ever; and is being made available only digitally, including on the web. Readers should be aware that later reviews of the geology of the areas covered in Report 74-2 are those by Hibbard (1983), King (1988), Knight and James (1988), Smyth and Schillereff (1982), Stouge (1983a,b), and Knight (1983). Details concerning the economic potential of the limestone resources themselves, also have been updated in the interim. The Newfoundland Department of Mines and Energy began a reassess- ment of Newfoundland marble resources in 1985, the objective of which was to determine their industrial potential as filler and dimension stone. Significant reassessments of some of the old deposits were made and new deposits of high-purity, white marble were delineated by diamond drilling.
