Similar to earlier studies, we fi nd that island-arc tholeiite of the lower pillow lava sequence erupted fi rst, followed by boninite. We further divide boninitic rocks into boninite making up the upper pillow lava sequence, and depleted boninites that we consider late infi ll lavas. We obtained an Ar-Ar age from arc tholeiite of 90.6 ± 1.2 Ma, comparable to U-Pb ages from ophiolite plagiogranites. New biostratigraphic data indicate that most of the basal pelagic sedimentary rocks that conformably overlie the boninitic rocks are ca. 75 Ma. This suggests that voluminous eruption of boninitic rocks persisted until ca. 75 Ma. Limited eruption of boninitic lavas may have continued until 55.5 ± 0.9 Ma, based on the Ar-Ar age we obtained. The duration of arc magmatism at Troodos (at least 16 m.y., with some activity perhaps extending 35 m.y.) without the devel- opment of a mature arc edifi ce greatly exceeds that of other well-studied suprasubduction-zone ophiolites. We propose that Troodos was formed over a newly formed subduction zone, similar to many proposed models, but that the extended period of magmatism (boninitic) resulted from a prolonged period of ridge subduction.

  • The Mineral Industry of Cyprus in 2007
    2007 Minerals Yearbook CYPRUS U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey THE MINERAL INDUS T RY OF CYPRUS By Harold R. Newman There was a strong tradition and culture of mining in Cyprus,1 assessment of the Mitsero processing plant, and preparation although the contribution of mining to the economy was not as of a metallurgical design for a processing strategy. More important as in the past. Cyprus has a modern mining law that feasibility work was planned with the aim of beginning provides security of tenure and right of access to private land development during 2008 if regulatory permits are granted for exploration purposes. The sparse vegetation is conducive (Thomson Reuters, 2008). to outcrop mapping and ground surveys. The country had a well developed infrastructure to support exploration and Industrial Minerals mining operations. In 2007, the Government initiated a study on reviving the Cypriot mining industry and was encouraging Gypsum.—Abundant reserves of gypsum are found in certain types of joint ventures with Turkish Cypriots (EMED Cyprus. Gypsum occurs in two well-defined groups—one is in Mining Public Ltd., 2007). a narrow arcuate zone that is parallel to the trend of the Kyrenia range in the north of the island and includes the Lupatza gypsum Production outcrop; the other occurs on the periphery of the Troodos igneous massif. Both of these deposits are of upper Miocene age Data on mineral production are in table 1. The production (Minerals Zone, 2007). of bentonite, cement, sand and gravel, and stone dominated the mineral industry of Cyprus. Other mineral commodities Mineral Fuels produced included common clay for brick and cement manufacture, gypsum, ocher, and umber.

  • A 250-Year Annual Precipitation Reconstruction and Drought Assessment for Cyprus from Pinus Brutia Ten
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CLIMATOLOGY Int. J. Climatol. (2013) Published online in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com) DOI: 10.1002/joc.3869 A 250-year annual precipitation reconstruction and drought assessment for Cyprus from Pinus brutia Ten. tree-rings Carol Griggs,a* Charlotte Pearson,b Sturt W. Manninga and Brita Lorentzena a The Malcolm and Carolyn Wiener Laboratory for Aegean and Near Eastern Dendrochronology, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, USA b LTRR, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, USA ABSTRACT: Precipitation around Cyprus, a relatively small island, is generally consistent in year-to-year variation in all dimensions except amplitude, with the higher elevations in the west generally receiving more precipitation. An annual record of precipitation was found in tree-rings of the predominant pine species, Pinus brutia Ten., which grows from the lower foothills up to 1400 m in altitude across the island. Tree-ring chronologies from four sites in west-central Cyprus are used here to reconstruct the annual September to August precipitation and a drought record for AD 1830–2006, with the drought reconstruction extending back to 1756. A minimum of 40% of the variance in annual precipitation and drought occurrence is explained by the variance in the tree-ring widths in all cases. Our drought assessment indicates that, on average, annual droughts occur once every 5 years and sustained droughts, 2–6 years in length, have occurred in small clusters of time, from 1806–1824, 1915–1934 and 1986–2000, when the winter North Atlantic Oscillation was in a predominantly positive phase. These results suggest that a sustained drought period has a mean return time probability of one in 70–100 years.
