| Abstract/Notes | The effects of different regional tectonic events on the Neoproterozoic basement rocks of the Arabian–Nubian Shield in Sinai, as well as the Egyptian unstable and stable shelves, remain uncertain. Coupling fission-track thermochronometry findings with the modeling of the time–temperature history has proved to be an effective method for tackling these issues. The obtained zircon fission-track ages were differentiated into two groups from the Ediacaran–Cambrian and the Ordovician–Carboniferous periods, while the apatite fission-track data revealed two separate groups of cooling ages of the Carboniferous–Triassic and Late Cretaceous ages. The integration of these cooling ages and modeling of the time–temperature history revealed four discrete cooling pulses during the Neoproterozoic, Devonian–Carboniferous, Cretaceous, and Oligocene–Miocene eras. After integrating our findings with the regional tectonic historical and sedimentological records, these could be identified as cooling/exhumation pulses activated in response to the post-accretional event of erosion, Variscan tectonism, the disintegration of Gondwana, and the Gulf of Suez rifting, respectively. Furthermore, the southern border of the Egyptian unstable shelf was found to extend southward to South Sinai and south of the Bahariya depression. |
