The Banyo area, located in the southern prolongation of the Mayo Nolti shear zone trend, belongs to the western Cameroon domain of the Neoproterozoic Central African Belt (NCAB). It is made of granitic rocks that intrude metamorphic banded rocks. Both are sometimes mylonitized. The pluton is dominantly of paramagnetic behavior, as shown by the hysteresis loops and the Fe-bearing silicates cryst…
A multidisciplinary analysis of the Pennsylvanian Castelo Branco pluton of Central Iberian Zone (Iberian Variscan belt) was made, focusing on its magnetic behavior and fabric, microstructures, microfractures, and radiometric and gravimetric anomalies. The findings reveal that the Castelo Branco pluton is an ilmenite-type granite, characterized by low magnetic susceptibility values. The petrogra…
Longchahe porphyritic granite is the largest pluton within the western Gejiu complex, a series of mainly intermediate to felsic alkali intrusions in southwestern China. Our research indicates that the pluton intruded during the Late Cretaceous (82–84 Ma). The pluton is primarily a medium- to coarse-grained porphyritic granite, which shows weakly peraluminous (A/CNK = 0.92–1.82, with an aver…
