Multi-mineral geochronology: insights into crustal behaviour during exhumation of an orogenic root

Under rare conditions, reworked cratons and their margins preserve the orogenic roots of ancient mountain-building events. However, based on the preservation of high-temperature (~ 800 °C), middle and lower crustal metamorphic assemblages, present day exposure of these terrains is not simply a resul...
