Arabian Shield ophiolites and Late Proterozoic microplate accretion
Fragments of Late Proterozoic ocean crust and mantle (ophiolites) occur within six major fault zones that mark sutures between crustal blocks (microplates) that were accreted between about 630 and 715 Ma to form the Arabian Shield. We report new U-Pb zircon ages for ophiolitic gabbro, diorite, and plagiogranite that range from 840 to 700 Ma and establish these complexes among the oldest proven oph

Reconnaissance geologic map of the Harrat Tuffil Quadrangle, sheet 20/39 B, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
The Harrat Tuffil quadrangle, sheet 20/39 B, is located between lat 20°30’ and 21°00’ N. and long 39°30’ and 40°00’ E. about 50 km southeast of Jiddah. A western belt of Proterozoic metapelites and related rocks, defined as the Sa’diyah formation, structurally underlies and locally is interlayered with Proterozoic metabasaltic rocks of oceanic chemical affinity to the east. The Sa’diyah formation
