PB - PUBLISHER: Elsevier. Amsterdam, Netherlands. 1999. CP - COUNTRY OF PUBLICATION: Netherlands PY - PUBLICATION YEAR: 1999 LA - LANGUAGE: English AB - ABSTRACT: Coastal Ecuador is made up of an oceanic igneous basement overlain by Upper Cretaceous to Lower Paleocene ( nearly equal 98-60 Ma) volcaniclastic and volcanic rocks of island-arc affinities. The igneous basement, known as the Pinon Formation, locally dated at 123 Ma, consists of olivine-free basalts and dolerites. Relative to N-MORB, both types of rocks exhibit high concentrations in Nb (0.3-10.75 ppm), Ta (0.03-0.67 ppm), Th (0.11-1.44 ppm), light and medium rare earth elements, and low Zr (22-105 ppm) and Hf (0.59-2.8 ppm) contents, thus showing oceanic plateau basalts affinities. Most of these oceanic plateau basalts tholeiites display rather homogeneous epsilon (sub Nd(T = 123 Ma)) ratios ( approximately +7), with the exception of two rocks with higher (+10) and lower (+4.5) epsilon (sub Nd(T = 123 Ma)) , respectively. All these basalts plot, with one exception, within the ocean island basalts field. Their ( (super 87) Sr/ (super 86) Sr) (sub i) ratios are highly variable (0.7032-0.7048), probably due to hydrothermal oceanic alteration or assimilation of altered oceanic crust. The rocks of the Pinon Formation are geochemically similar to the oceanic plateau tholeiites from Nauru and Ontong Java Plateaus and to the Upper Cretaceous (92-88 Ma) Caribbean Oceanic Plateau lavas. The basalts and dolerites of the Upper Cretaceous-Lower Paleocene island arcs show calc-alkaline affinities. The epsilon (sub Nd) ratios (+6.1 to +7.1) of these arc-rocks are very homogenous and fall within the range of intra-oceanic island-arc lavas. The Upper Cretaceous-Lower Paleocene calc-alkaline and tholeiitic rocks from coastal Ecuador share similar high epsilon (sub Nd) ratios to Cretaceous intra-oceanic arc rocks from north, central and South America and from the Greater Antilles. Since the Pinon oceanic plateau tholeiites are locally overlain by early-Late Cretaceous sediments ( approximately 98-83 Ma) and yielded locally an Early Cretaceous age, they do not belong to the Late Cretaceous Caribbean Oceanic Plateau. The basement of coastal Ecuador is interpreted as an accreted fragment of an overthickened and buoyant oceanic plateau. The different tectonic units of coastal Ecuador cannot be easily correlated with those of western Colombia, excepted the Late Cretaceous San Lorenzo and Ricaurte island arcs. It is suggested that northwestern South America consists of longitudinally discontinuous terranes, built by repeated accretionary events and significant longitudinal displacement of these terranes.

On the western side of the Eastern Cordillera, the deposits are linked by tear faults and associated thrusts developed during a compressive tectonic phase that occurred at the time of the Eocene-Oligocene boundary, prior to the major uplift of the Cordillera during the Andean phase (middle Miocene). On the eastern side of the Cordillera, emerald mineralization occurred earlier, at the time of the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary, during a thin-skinned extensional tectonic event linked to evaporite dissolution. This event predates the Andean phase, during which this part of the chain was folded and thrust over the Llanos foreland.

CP - COUNTRY OF PUBLICATION: United-States PY - PUBLICATION YEAR: 1999 LA - LANGUAGE: English AB - ABSTRACT: Robert Lee Sprinkel, Jr., a longtime member of AAPG and a distinguished minerals and petroleum engineer and geologist, died April 3, 1998 in Denver, Colorado at the age of 90. He was born on October 11, 1907, in Kinta, Indian Territory (Oklahoma), was schooled in Muskogee, Oklahoma through high school, and graduated from the University of California at Berkeley in 1930 with a degree in mining engineering. He was commissioned in the U.S. Army Reserve in 1929, rising to the rank of lieutenant colonel before his retirement in 1972. After graduation from the University of California, Bob went to work for his former Berkeley professor, Andrew Lawson, doing the geological soundings for the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge. In 1987, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Bay Bridge, Bob was honored as a Bay Bridge Pioneer. Following his work on the Bay Bridge, Bob worked as a hydrologist with C&H Sugar Refinery in Crockett, California. In 1932, Bob married Marian Boyles, a classmate from Berkeley. The following year the newlyweds went to the Philippines, where Bob worked as a mining engineer with the Big Wedge Mining Company in Baguio. Their first child, Robert Lee Sprinkel III, was born in Baguio on April 13, 1935. Returning to the United States in late 1935, Bob worked for the city of San Francisco on a water-table project at Fleischhacker Zoo. He joined Shell Oil Company as a geologist in Los Angeles in 1938, the year their daughter, Kay Marianne, was born on June 19. Bob was with Shell Oil until 1952, except for his time on active duty during World War II. Bob left for active duty in 1942 and was deployed to England, France, and Belgium. He was part of Operation Overlord, the D-Day invasion of France in June 1944. During the war, he commanded an ordnance battalion, achieving the rank of captain. He was separated from active duty in March 1946, and returned to Sacramento. Afterward, Shell moved him to Ventura and then to Long Beach. In 1952, he joined the Northern Pacific Railway in their oil development department in Billings, Montana, working in the Williston Basin oil fields. He joined Seaboard Oil in 1955, remaining in Billings until 1956, when he moved to Denver with Texaco. From 1962 to 1965, Bob and Marian lived in Bogota, Colombia, where he was chief geologist for Colombia and northern Ecuador for Texaco. They returned to Denver, and Bob continued to work with Texaco until his retirement in 1973. Retirement was too confining for Bob, and in 1974 he began 20 years of consulting in the energy industry, including work with his son in England in the minerals business. He worked with Pace and Cameron Engineers in Denver, and often served as an expert witness in minerals- related legal matters. In 1993, Bob and daughter Kay made a memorable pilgrimage to Normandy, where he revisited the memories and beaches of the 1944 landing at Omaha Beach. The following year he was severely injured in an automobile accident, and his health declined after that incident. Bob was a registered engineer and a member of the AAPG, Reserve Officers Association, Petroleum Pioneers, Rocky Mountain Petroleum Geologists, Colorado Mining Association, Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity, Society of Mining Engineers, Society of Petroleum Engineers, American Institute of Professional Geologists, and Montana Geological Association. Survivors include his wife of 65 years, Marian; his daughter, Kay Sprinkel Beaumont of San Francisco; his son, Robert III of Rutland, England; a sister, Beatrice Sprinkel of San Francisco; 11 grandchildren, and 13 great-grandchildren. Memorial contributions may be made to Yellowstone Boys and Girls Ranch, Billings, Montana, or to the AAPG scholarship fund.

PB - PUBLISHER: Elsevier. Amsterdam, Netherlands. 1999. CP - COUNTRY OF PUBLICATION: Netherlands PY - PUBLICATION YEAR: 1999 LA - LANGUAGE: English AB - ABSTRACT: The North Andean convergent margin is a region of intense crustal deformation, with six great subduction earthquakes M (sub w) > or =7.8 this century. The regional pattern of seismicity and volcanism shows a high degree of segmentation along strike of the Andes. Segments of steep slab subduction alternate with aseismic regions and segments of flat slab subduction. This segmentation is related to heterogeneity on the subducting Nazca Plate. In particular, the influence of the Carnegie Ridge collision is investigated. Four distinct seismotectonic regions can be distinguished: Region 1 - from 6 degrees N to 2.5 degrees N with steep ESE-dipping subduction and a narrow volcanic arc; Region 2 - from 2.5 degrees N to 1 degrees S showing an intermediate-depth seismic gap and a broad volcanic arc; Region 3 - from 1 degrees S to 2 degrees S with steep NE-dipping subduction, and a narrow volcanic arc; Region 4 - south of 2 degrees S with flat subduction and no modern volcanic arc. The Carnegie Ridge has been colliding with the margin since at least 2 Ma based on examination of the basement uplift signal along trench-parallel transects. The subducted prolongation of Carnegie Ridge may extend up to 500 km from the trench as suggested by the seismic gap and the perturbed, broad volcanic arc. These findings conflict with previous tectonic models suggesting that the Carnegie Ridge entered the trench at 1 Ma. Furthermore, the anomalous geochemical (adakitic) signature of the volcanoes in the broad Ecuador volcanic arc and the seismicity pattern are proposed to be caused by lithospheric tears separating the buoyant, shallowly subducting Carnegie Ridge from segments of steep subduction in Regions 1 and 3. It is further suggested that Carnegie Ridge supports a local "flat slab"' segment similar to that observed in Peru. The impact of the Carnegie Ridge collision on the upper plate causes transpressional deformation, extending inboard to beyond the volcanic arc with a modern level of seismicity comparable to the San Andreas fault system. The pattern of instrumental and historical seismicity indicates (1) great earthquakes on the northern and southern flanks of the colliding ridge, (2) a slight reduction in observed seismicity at the trench-ridge intersection, (3) increased stress far into the continent, and (4) a NNE displacement of the N. Andes block, to be further effects of the collision.
