The Early Proterozoic orogenic belt in Arizona is a wide complex zone of        deformed continental crust that was accreted to North America between           1800 and 1600 Ma.  Prior work has identified several major crustal              blocks, bounded by shear zones, that underwent different structural             histories prior to their juxtaposition sometime after 1695 Ma.  These           new data strongly suggests that the Proterozoic of central Arizona              evolved by a process of accretionary tectonics analogous to accretionary        collages in Phanerozoic orogens.  This renewal project, in collaboration        with workers at Washington University, will extend mapping coverage and         structural analysis to a larger area, including several terranes and            possible suture zones.  Precise U-Pb geochronology will be applied to           constrain the sequence and timing of deformation and metamorphic events.        Results will address the problem of evolution of the Proterozoic plate          margin along the southern edge of the North American continent, and             mechanisms of continental growth.
