Extension and volcanism : tectonic development of the northwestern margin of the Basin and Range Province in southern Oregon

Creator:: Scarberry, Kaleb C.
Abstract:: The northwestern corner of the Basin and Range Province (NWBR) lies in southeast Oregon where extensive Late Miocene, mafic to bimodal basalt-rhyolite volcanism and extensional faults dominate a stark and arid landscape. Near Lake Abert, the Late Miocene volcanic section abuts Early Miocene, dominantly intermediate composition volcanoes at the Coleman...

The termination of the Basin and Range Province into a clockwise rotating region of transtension and volcanism, central Oregon

Creator:: Trench, David
Abstract:: Normal faults characterizing extensional provinces may terminate along-strike at regions of zero extension, at zones of transform faults, or at triple junctions. Termination of the Basin and Range extensional province in southeastern Oregon is thought to occur by right-lateral transform motion distributed across the Brothers Fault zone (BFZ) in central...

Two-stage opening of the northwestern basin and range in eastern Oregon : evidence from the Miocene Crane basin

Creator:: Milliard, Justin B.
Abstract:: New data are presented that provide evidence for the onset of extensional deformation in the Northwestern Basin and Range within 1 million years after the eruption of the Steens Basalt at 16.5 Ma. New geologic mapping (1:24,000), stratigraphic sections, and ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar dating of the Crane Basin rocks provide a control...

Diffuse deformation patterns along the North American plate boundary zone, offshore western United States

Creator:: Chaytor, Jason D.
Abstract:: Plate boundaries are commonly regions of complex, diffuse deformation with the motion across the boundary accommodated by numerous structural systems, rather than being narrow, discrete zones of deformation. One such boundary occurs where the North American plate makes contact with Juan de Fuca, Gorda, and Pacific plates along the west...

Structural Evolution, Vein Orientation, and Paragenesis of the Botija Porphyry Cu-Mo-(Au) Deposit, Colón, Panamá

Creator:: Sepp, Michael D.
Abstract:: The Botija Cu-Mo-Au porphyry deposit is located in the Cobre Panamá mining district, which contains several deposits with a global measure and indicated and inferred resource of 14.8 MT of Cu. These deposits are associated with the Cerro Petaquilla batholith, which has U/Pb zircon ages of 26-33 Ma (Whattam et...

Timescales of large silicic magma systems : implications from accessory minerals in Pleistocene lavas of the Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex, central Andes

Creator:: Tierney, Casey R.
Abstract:: Constraining the development, evolution, and timescales of large silicic magma systems is important to understanding the development of granite batholiths, the relationships between volcanoes and their plutonic underpinnings, and the development of the continental crust. The ignimbrite flare up that produced the Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex of the Central Andes is...

Understanding large resurgent calderas and associated magma systems : the Pastos Grandes Caldera Complex, southwest Bolivia

Creator:: Kaiser, Jason Frederick, 1985-
Abstract:: The Pastos Grandes Caldera Complex (PGCC) in southwest Bolivia has produced two large-volume (≥800 km³ DRE) dacite ignimbrites from a nested caldera source over a period of 5.5 Myr. In addition to the large-volume ignimbrites, a small-volume ignimbrite shield and post-climactic lavas define this composite system. Based on detailed field...

The geology and geochemistry of the Sulphurets district porphyry Au-Cu-Mo deposits, British Columbia, Canada: Insights from a long-lived, gold-enriched porphyry district

Creator:: Campbell, Michelle E.
Abstract:: Porphyry Cu-(Au-Mo) deposits are critical sources of several economically important metals. The processes governing the total metal endowment and relative proportions of ore metals at these large magmatic-hydrothermal deposits remain uncertain. The Sulphurets porphyry district, in northwestern British Columbia, Canada, contains four porphyry Au-Cu-Mo deposits that each feature distinct Cu/Au...

Genesis of the El Salvador porphyry copper deposit, Chile and distribution of epithermal alteration at Lassen Peak, California

Creator:: Lee, Robert G. (Robert George)
Abstract:: The El Salvador porphyry copper deposit in the Indio Muerto district of northern Chile has been geologically investigated for more than 60 years and provides one of the best bases for understanding similar environments of ore formation elsewhere in the world. Fourteen new zircon U/Pb isotopic ages obtained via in...
