In East Antarctica’s Archaean-Proterozoic Rayner Complex, metasedimentary gneisses at Stillwell Hills in Kemp Land are interfolded with orthogneisses. At Cape Bruce and Forbes Glacier in MacRobertson Land, metasediments form more continuous exposures that are intruded by the Mawson Charnockite (c.98...
