New structural and geochronological data from the Eastern Palmer Land Shear Zone, in the vicinity of Beaumont Glacier, provide the first evidence of dated structural control on emplacement of the 119–95 Ma, >13000 km 2 Cretaceous Lassiter Coast Intrusive Suite, during the accretionary mid-Cretace...
