The Wadi Zaghra metasediments of Sinai, Egypt: new constraints on the late Cryogenian–Ediacaran tectonic evolution of the northernmost Arabian–Nubian Shield

The Wadi Zaghra metasediments of Sinai, Egypt: new constraints on the late Cryogenian–Ediacaran tectonic evolution of the northernmost Arabian–Nubian Shield

The depositional age of the Wadi Zaghra metasediments (Zaghra Formation) of the Sa’al-Zaghra metamorphic complex (Sinai) in the Arabian–Nubian Shield (ANS) has been constrained by LA-ICP-MS dating of zircons from (1) metaconglomerate granitoid clasts, (2) the metaconglomerate matrix, (3) biotite-sch...
