Paleomagnetic results and isotopic age determinations for granophyre and rhyolite from small, isolated nunataks in southern Coats Land, Antarctica, are used to evaluate late Proterozoic plate reconstructions. U-Pb zircon dates for the two rock types indicate coeval crystallization at 1112±4 Ma. A co...
