Phanerozoic cooling history of Archean/Paleoproterozoic basement in the southern Espinha??o Range, southeastern Brazil, through apatite fission-track analysis
Apatite fission track thermochronology of basement rocks from the southern Espinha??o Range and Quadril??tero Ferr??fero in southeastern Brazil unravels the tectonic history of this portion of the Brazilian Shield. The study area encompasses an Archean and Paleoproterozoic granitoid-gneiss basement,...
