Description
Summary:© 2004 Dr. Laixi Tong This thesis involves a study of metamorphism and partial melting in granulite facies metapelites from three regions, the Larsemann Hills and the Rauer Group of east Antarctica, and Fishery Bay in southern Eyre Peninsula of South Australia. Along with the metamorphic study, $^40Ar/^39Ar$ thermochronological dating was also undertaken for the first two areas to constrain the timing of tectonothermal events and syn- to post-tectonic cooling history.
