Eburnean deformation pattern of Burkina Faso and the tectonic significance of shear zones in the West African craton
Shear zones of the Paleoproterozoic Eburnean accretionary Orogen (West African craton) are investigated by means of large-scale structural mapping. Regional scale (10-100 km) mapping was based on the aeromagnetic survey of Burkina Faso and craton-scale (1000 km) mapping on a compilation of fabric data. At both scales, shear zones are arranged as an anastomosed transpressional network that accommodated distributed shortening and lateral flow of the orogenic lithosphere between the converging Kenema-Man and Congo Archean provinces. Structural interference patterns at both scales were due to three-dimensional partitioning of progressive transpressional deformation and interactions among shear zones that absorbed heterogeneities in the regional flow patterns while maintaining the connectivity of the shear zone network. Such orogen-scale kinematic patterns call for caution in using the deformation phase approach without considering the “bigger structural picture” and interpreting displacement history of individual shear zones in terms of plate kinematics. The West African shear zone pattern is linked to that of the Guiana shield through a new transatlantic correlation to produce an integrated kinematic model of the Eburnean-Transamazonian orogen.
期刊介绍:
BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin publie plusieurs types de contributions :
1. des articles originaux, couvrant tous les champs disciplinaires des Géosciences, à vocation fondamentale mais également à vocation plus appliquée (risques, ressources);
2. des articles de synthèse, faisant le point sur les avancées dans un domaine spécifique des Géosciences, qu''elles soient méthodologiques ou régionales ;
3. des monographies sur la géologie d’une région donnée, assorties d’informations supplémentaires, cartes, coupes, logs, profils sismiques … publiées en ligne en annexe de l’article ;
4. des articles courts de type « express letter » ;
5. des livrets-guides d’excursion (qui suivront le même processus d’examen éditorial que les articles plus classiques) ;
6. des comptes rendus de campagnes à la mer ;
7. des articles de données géodésiques, géophysiques ou géochimiques, pouvant devenir des articles de référence pouvant conduire à des interprétations ultérieures.
BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin constitue également un forum pour les discussions entre spécialistes des Sciences de la Terre, de type comment-reply ou autre. Tous les articles publiés, quelle que soit leur forme, seront accessibles sans frais (articles en Open Access) sur le site de la SGF et sur celui de Geosciences World dans la mesure où les auteurs se seront acquittés d’une contribution de (Article Processing Charges – APC) de 300€ pour les membres de la SGF et 500€ pour les non-membres.
