P(論文) Large blocks of metamorphic rocks with mafic to ultramafic compositions were discovered in felsic gneiss at the central part of northern Howard Hills in Enderby Land. The ultramafic core is separated from the felsic gneiss by a mantle of pyroxene granulite. We can recognize from mineral assemb...
