Hundreds of millions of years ago, all land on Earth was part of single "supercontinent" known as Pangea, which was surrounded by a continuous global ocean. About 200 million years ago, a 6,000-kilometer-long fracture split Pangea into two separate and smaller supercontinents, Laurasia (which would later become North America, Europe, and Asia) …

The Mesa Central (MC) of Mexico presents a noticeable feature as is the three-dimensional (3D) deformation of Cenozoic volcanic rocks. To figure out when this unusual deformation began, we constructed a geological map at 1:100,000 scale, with detailed stratigraphy, and thirteen new U-Pb ages in the southern MC.

Xstrata's portfolio of coal, copper, nickel and zinc will align well with Glencore's existing portfolio of mineral mining subsidiaries, but Glencore's other core businesses could allow a far simpler transition through vertical integration. The merger would become the first such integration between a mining company and commodity trader.
