To explore the geological evolution of the Grove Subglacial Highlands and their relationship with other terranes in the Prince Charles Mountains-Prydz Bay region of East Antarctica, 10 samples of metasedimentary rock were collected from glacial moraines in the Grove Mountains for zircon U-Pb dating...
