AB - ABSTRACT: The Dana Hill Metagabbro Body (DHMG) is a small (5X1.5 km) gabbroic intrusion located along the boundary between the Adirondack highlands (Central Granulite Terrain CGT) and lowlands (Central Metasedimentary Belt CMB). The DHMG is located within the Carthage-Colton Shear Zone (CCSZ). Petrologic, structural, and geochronologic evidence indicates that the DHMG was multiply deformed and that deformation took place under amphibolite to granulite conditions syn- to post peak Ottawan Orogeny (1020 Mya). The shallow plunge on stretching lineations for granulite facies shear zones in the DHMG indicate that the early deformation/recrystallization events record predominately strike-slip motions along the CCSZ and that the structural level did not radically change during these shearing events. In short, early movements along the CCSZ were not caused by unroofing of the orogen, but rather by potentially large-scale, right-lateral strike-slip movements. Later events (shearing, folding and brecciation) span a wide range of conditions terminating with brecciation at greenschist facies conditions. These temporally later events may record dip-slip movements occurring as late as 945 Ma that eventually bring the CMB and CGT to a common structural level. In this model, the CMB and CGT terranes must have been laterally and vertically separated during the Ottawan Orogeny. The lateral (along strike) separation of the CGT and CMB may have been of great enough magnitude to allow these two terranes to undergo very different P-T-t paths during the Ottawan Orogeny without the need to invoke an intervening ocean basin. The tectonic scenario for the CGT during the Ottawan Orogeny is similar to the transpressive environment envisioned for the emplacement of the widely distributed Wrangellia and Cache Creek Terranes in western North America. The recognition of large scale strike-slip movements along shear zones during the Grenville (Ottawan) may shed light on the relative motions between CGT rocks of the Adirondack Highlands and Morin Terrane with other Grenville-aged CGT slices like the Oaxacan Complex in Mexico and Garzon Massif in Columbia.

AB - ABSTRACT: The crustal attenuation of Lg waves in Colombia was estimated and analyzed using local seismological data from the National Seismological Network of Colombia (RSNC). The selected dataset comprises 510 crustal earthquakes with a total of 2928 ray paths. This large dataset allowed us to invert for a regional average of Q (sub Lg) , tomographic images for Colombia, and simultaneously, source size for each event and site term at the seismological stations. The computed regional average for Q (sub Lg) in the frequency band 0.5-5.0 Hz was found to agree with the previously reported values in neighboring regions. In order to resolve the lateral variation in the attenuation of Lg waves in the crust, independent tomographic inversions for 26 frequencies between 0.5 and 5.0 Hz were conducted. The resulting maps confirm that heterogeneities in the crust exist and that they are related to the large-scale tectonic features in the country. The highest attenuation in the region is linked to the presence of active volcanic arcs, where the crust is weakened by partial melting. Relatively high attenuation is also found in zones where the crust is composed of accreted oceanic rocks and in regions with near-surface low-velocity sedimentary layers.

AB - ABSTRACT: Chemical sequential extraction is widely used to divide soil phosphorus (P) into different inorganic (P (sub i) ) and organic (P (sub o) ) fractions, but the assignment of these fractions to pools of differing plant availability, especially for low P tropical soils, is still matter of discussion. To improve this assignment, the effect of land-use systems and related P fertilizer inputs on size of P fractions and their isotopic exchangeability was investigated. A Colombian Oxisol, sampled from a long-term field experiment with contrasting management treatments, was labeled with carrier free (super 33) P and extracted after incubation times of 4 h, 1, and 2 wk. Phosphorus concentrations and (super 33) P recovery in fractions sequentially extracted with anion exchange resin (P (sub i) ), 0.5 M NaHCO (sub 3) (Bic-P (sub i) , Bic-P (sub o) ), 0.1 M NaOH (P (sub i) , P (sub o) ), hot concentrated HCl (P (sub i) , P (sub o) ), and residual P were measured for each incubation time. Resin-P (sub i) , Bic-P (sub i) , NaOH-P (sub i) , and hot HCl-P (sub i) were increased with P fertilization, with the highest increase for NaOH-P (sub i) . The recovery of (super 33) P in the treatments with annual P fertilization clearly exceeding P outputs indicate that resin-P (sub i) , Bic-P (sub i) , and NaOH-P (sub i) represented most of the exchangeable P. In these treatments, label P transformed with increasing incubation time from the resin to the Bic-P (sub i) and NaOH-P (sub i) fractions. The organic or recalcitrant inorganic fractions contained almost no exchangeable P. In contrast, in soils with low or no P fertilization, more than 14% of the (super 33) P was recovered in NaOH-P (sub o) and HCl-P (sub o) fractions 2 wk after labeling, showing that organic P dynamics are important when soil P (sub i) reserves are limited.

AB - ABSTRACT: Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging was used to map the 3D porosity and permeability distributions in heterogeneous sandstone cores under controlled laboratory conditions. The porosity and permeability distributions so obtained were used to numerically simulate first-contact miscible displacements in the cores. The spatial and temporal solvent concentrations from the numerical simulations were compared to those from imaging experiments in the cores in an effort to validate the porosity and permeability data. The results show that with calibration, useful 3D porosity and permeability distributions of heterogeneous cores can be derived from NMR imaging (NMRI).

AB - ABSTRACT: The eastwards motion of the Caribbean Plate is supposed to be related to a Cretaceous flip of subduction from east to west vergence. However, we do not observe on the seismic profiles recorded during the CASIS 2 cruise, any evidence of subduction beneath the Aves Ridge and Nicaragua Rise. The Aves volcanic arc was probably formed after the collision of the Caribbean volcanic plateau as shown by a wedge of volcanic-clastic sediments imaged by the seismic cruise CASIS 2. Recent left-lateral transtensional tectonics are observed in the lower Nicaragua Rise; the Colombia basin might have a motion towards the northeast relative to the rise.

AB - ABSTRACT: The past decade saw growth in gem exploration, production, and marketing worldwide. Important colored stone-producing regions included: Southeast Asia (Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam), Africa (Tanzania, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, and Namibia, as well as Madagascar), South America (Brazil and Colombia), central and southern Asia (Sri Lanka, India, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Russia, and China), and Australia. The major sources for diamonds were Australia, central and southern Africa (Botswana, South Africa, Namibia, Angola, and Zaire), and Russia (mainly in the Republic of Sakha), with exciting discoveries in northern Canada. Cultured pearls from French Polynesia, Australia, and China became increasingly important, as production from Japan declined. This article provides a comprehensive overview of those gem deposits that were either new or remained commercially significant in the last decade of the 20th century.
