Decratonization by rifting enables orogenic reworking and transcurrent dispersal of old terranes in NE Brazil

Abstract Dispersion and deformation of cratonic fragments within orogens require weakening of the craton margins in a process of decratonization. The orogenic Borborema Province, in NE Brazil, is one of several Brasiliano/Pan-African late Neoproterozoic orogens that led to the amalgamation of Gondwa...
