Early Mesoproterozoic (1.6–1.5 Ga) granulite facies events in the Ongole domain: geodynamic significance and global correlation
Abstract The late Palaeoproterozoic to early Mesoproterozoic Ongole domain of the Eastern Ghats Belt in southeastern India is composed of a suite of charnoenderbites with enclaves of metapelitic and mafic granulites. Geochemical data for all meta‐igneous rocks are typical for continental magmatic ar...
