Dear all,
Happy New Year.
Please distribute this e-mail around you!
If you are interesting in rocks that were formed or deformed (re-worked) during the collision between East- and West-Gondwana as well as the structural elements those were formed during the collision, you still have four days to submit your abstract to the EGU session TS6.7/GD3.6/GMPV51 (Collision of East and West Gondwana).
The dead line of abstract submission is Monday 10 January, 2011.
You can log to submit your abstract through (https://administrator.copernicus.org/authentication.php) using your ID and password.
For more detail please visit http://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2011/session/7163 or contact me ([log in to unmask]).
Session description
This session aims to draw the tectonic evolution of the orogenies that were formed due to the collision between East- and West-Gondwana (Pan-African, Brasiliano, Adelaidean and Beardmore orogenies). The collision between East- and West-Gondwana was associated by closure of several major Neoproterozoic oceans (Kröner & Stern, 2004). These are the Mozambique Ocean between East Gondwana (Australia, Antarctica, southern India) and West Gondwana (Africa, South America), the Adamastor Ocean between Africa and South America, the Damara Ocean between the Kalahari and Congo cratons, and the Trans-Sahara Ocean between the West African Craton and a poorly known pre-Pan-African terrane in north-central Africa (Klerkx & Deutsch, 1977; Toteu et al., 1990; Black & Liegeois, 1993) variously known as the Nile or Sahara Craton.
This session will discuss any rock type which was formed or deformed during the collision. As well as it will discuss the structural elements those were formed during the collision.
See you in the EGU2011
