  • The Penokean Orogeny in the Lake Superior Region Klaus J
    Precambrian Research 157 (2007) 4–25 The Penokean orogeny in the Lake Superior region Klaus J. Schulz ∗, William F. Cannon U.S. Geological Survey, 954 National Center, Reston, VA 20192, USA Received 16 March 2006; received in revised form 1 September 2006; accepted 5 February 2007 Abstract The Penokean orogeny began at about 1880 Ma when an oceanic arc, now the Pembine–Wausau terrane, collided with the southern margin of the Archean Superior craton marking the end of a period of south-directed subduction. The docking of the buoyant craton to the arc resulted in a subduction jump to the south and development of back-arc extension both in the initial arc and adjacent craton margin to the north. A belt of volcanogenic massive sulfide deposits formed in the extending back-arc rift within the arc. Synchronous extension and subsidence of the Superior craton resulted in a broad shallow sea characterized by volcanic grabens (Menominee Group in northern Michigan). The classic Lake Superior banded iron-formations, including those in the Marquette, Gogebic, Mesabi and Gunflint Iron Ranges, formed in that sea. The newly established subduction zone caused continued arc volcanism until about 1850 Ma when a fragment of Archean crust, now the basement of the Marshfield terrane, arrived at the subduction zone. The convergence of Archean blocks of the Superior and Marshfield cratons resulted in the major contractional phase of the Penokean orogeny. Rocks of the Pembine–Wausau arc were thrust northward onto the Superior craton causing subsidence of a foreland basin in which sedimentation began at about 1850 Ma in the south (Baraga Group rocks) and 1835 Ma in the north (Rove and Virginia Formations).

The timing and mechanism of the rise of atmospheric pO2 level in the early Precambrian have been long debated but no consensus has been reached. The oxygenation of the atmosphere and oceans has significant impacts on the evolution of the biosphere and the geochemical cycles of redox-sensitive elements. In order to constrain the evolution of the atmosphere, oceans, biosphere, and geochemical cycles of elements, a systematic and multidisciplinary

  • Synoptic Taxonomy of Major Fossil Groups
    APPENDIX Synoptic Taxonomy of Major Fossil Groups Important fossil taxa are listed down to the lowest practical taxonomic level; in most cases, this will be the ordinal or subordinallevel. Abbreviated stratigraphic units in parentheses (e.g., UCamb-Ree) indicate maximum range known for the group; units followed by question marks are isolated occurrences followed generally by an interval with no known representatives. Taxa with ranges to "Ree" are extant. Data are extracted principally from Harland et al. (1967), Moore et al. (1956 et seq.), Sepkoski (1982), Romer (1966), Colbert (1980), Moy-Thomas and Miles (1971), Taylor (1981), and Brasier (1980). KINGDOM MONERA Class Ciliata (cont.)

SIMS, Director Information Circular 8 SUMMARY OF FIELDWORK 1970 UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA MINNEAPOLIS 1970 MINNESOTA GEOLOGICAL SURVEY The Minnesota Geological Survey has the responsibility for conducting investigations of the geology of Minnesota for the benefit of the citizens and industries of the State. It carries out this responsibility by geologic mapping of the rock strata, by research on the occurrence, quality and usefulness of mineral resources, and by publication of the results. A list of publications of the Minnesota Geological Survey is available upon request. The publications include a bulletin series, geologic map series, miscellaneous map series, reports of investigations, special publication series, educational series, information circulars, reprint series, summary reports, miscellaneous reports, and other maps and charts. The Survey welcomes inquiries concerning any aspect of the geology of the State. Inquiries by mail should be addressed to: P.K.
