The Mesoproterozoic Guaporé suture in the SW Amazonian craton: Geotectonic implications based on field geology, zircon geochronology and Nd–Sr isotope geochemistry

A major Mesoproterozoic paleo-plate boundary in the southwestern Amazonian Craton, the Guaporé Suture Zone, is investigated by U–Pb zircon geochronology, Sr–Nd isotope geochemistry and aeromagnetic data. This suture zone is constituted dominantly by ophiolitic mafic–ultramafic rocks of the Trincheir...
