Book Synopsis Chemical Evolution of the Early Precambrian by : Cyril Ponnamperuma
Download or read book Chemical Evolution of the Early Precambrian written by Cyril Ponnamperuma and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemical Evolution of the Early Precambrian is a collection of papers presented at the Second College Park Colloquium on Chemical Evolution, held at the University of Maryland in October 1975. The book presents the discussions on the processes that led to the beginning of life on earth based on information gathered from the study of the Early Precambrian period. Topics on the origin of the atmosphere; early Precambrian weathering and sedimentation; carbon contents of early Precambrian rocks; and the establishment of the earliest date in the Precambrian period at which unambiguous living forms existed are expounded in the text. Geologists, biologists, chemists, paleobiologists, and students will find the book insightful and interesting.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Progress in Precambrian geology has been exceptionally great, indeed quite striking for geologists of the older generation; only some 30-40 years ago the Precambrian appeared as an uncertain and even mystic prelude to geologic evolution. Even the very name - Precambrian - means some indi visible unit in the early history of the Earth, the beginning of which is poorly known. At the same time it was obvious that the Precambrian formations are of extremely varied and complex composition and poor knowledge and lack of reliable methods of division and correlation were to blame for the lack of significant progress in studies of this early evolutionary stage of the planet. Certainly, even at the very start of Precambrian studies, the results obtained were quite promising, lifting as they did the mysterious veil over the regional Precambrian; but they presented no general realistic picture of this early stage in the Earth's evolution at that time. Recently, this situation has completely changed, due to new methods of study of the older forma tions, and due also to the refinement of some well-known methods, in particular of division, dating, and correlation of "silent" metamorphic strata. Application of different isotope methods of dating was most impor tant in providing objective rock age and thereby the age of geologic events recorded in these rocks. Thus it became possible to reconstruct the oldest geologic period of our planet.
Book Synopsis Principles of Precambrian Geology by : Alan M. Goodwin
Download or read book Principles of Precambrian Geology written by Alan M. Goodwin and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1996-06-18 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Principles of Precambrian Geologyis an update to the 1991 book, Precambrian Geology: The Dynamic Evolution of the Continental Crust, by the same author. The new edition covers the same topics in a more concise and accessible format and is replete with explanatory figures, tables, and illustrations. The book serves as a modern comprehensive statement on the Earth's Precambrian crust, covering the main aspects of distribution, lithiostratigraphy, age, and petrogenesis of Precambrian rocks by continent within the context of the Earth's evolving continental crust. Principles of Precambrian Geology provides a suitable framework for assessing various Earth dynamic and biospheric hypotheses, including the modern plate tectonic paradigm and the Gaian hypothesis. Despite the concise format, the new edition provides extensive updated references to support the information presented. It is designed to serve the needs of student, teacher, explorationist and general student of the continental crust. Updated to provide more concise accessible information Extensive illustrations, tabulations, and maps Provides a framework for assessing recent hypothesis on Earth dynamics Covers main aspects of distribution, lithostratigraphy, age, and protogenesis of Precambrian rocks

Book Synopsis Stratigraphic Sequence and Structure of Precambrian Metamorphic Rocks in Purdy Hill Quadrangle, Mason County, Texas by : Emilio Mutis-Duplat
Download or read book Stratigraphic Sequence and Structure of Precambrian Metamorphic Rocks in Purdy Hill Quadrangle, Mason County, Texas written by Emilio Mutis-Duplat and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Precambrian metamorphic rocks exposed in the Purdy Hill quadrangle include, from oldest to youngest, Valley Spring Gneiss, Lost Creek Gneiss, and Packsaddle Schist. On the basis of composition and structural and textural criteria, Valley Spring Gneiss is divided into three mappable units which in turn are subdivided into compositional facies. Lost Creek Gneiss is of granitic composition and grades into augen gneiss and migmatite. Valley Spring and Lost Creek Gneisses may originally have been a complex mixture of volcanic and intrusive rocks with interlayered sedimentary rocks. Packsaddle Schist is composed of metasedimentary rocks. Precambrian igneous rocks were intruded both discordantly and concordantly into the metamorphic rocks. They range in composition from granite to diorite, with granite predominating. Precambrian igneous and metamorphic rocks are unconformably overlain by sedimentary rocks which range in age from Late Cambrian to Early Cretaceous. The contacts between Precambrian metamorphic formations are conformable, and the rocks seem to have had a common deformation history. The structural features in the quadrangle are a fan anticline with satellitic tight and overturned folds that plunge northwest in Valley Spring and Lost Creek Gneisses, grading upwards to open and normal folds with the same trend in Packsaddle Schist, and a series of mostly northeast- and east-trending Paleozoic normal faults. Well-developed foliation, parallel to original bedding, is present almost everywhere in the metamorphic rocks. Locally the foliation is accentuated by color banding or layering which is somewhat discontinuous. Lineation is rarely observed except in schistose rocks. Rank of regional metamorphism corresponds to amphibolite facies, and mineral assemblages do not show increase of rank with increasing stratigraphic depth in exposed rocks. Maximum temperature and pressure during regional metamorphism are estimated to have been about 600°-630° C and 4 kb fluid pressure on the basis of the disequilibrium mineral assemblage diopside-tremolite-calcite-quartz.
