Abstract As one of the widest terranes exposed in icy Antarctica, the Larsemann Hills in the Prydz Bay belt preserves diverse rock types with a complex metamorphic history and thus is critical to the tectono-metamorphic evolution of East Antarctica. Garnet-sillimanite-spinel-cordierite–bearing and g...
