Abstract
⺠We collect granitoids samples in Dahomeyide orogen from Ghana, Togo and Benin. ⺠The granitoids are characterized by I-type signatures consistent with a subduction origin. ⺠We determined U-Pb zircon metamorphic ages range from 615 to 589 Ma. ⺠The crystallization ages range from 2.14 to 2.19 Ga. ⺠U-Pb zircon ages documenting Paleoproterozoic rocks in the postulated juvenile terrane.
