Geochemical and Isotopic Studies of Syenites From the Yamato Mountains, East Antarctica - Implications for the Origin of Syenitic Magmas

Voluminous syenites were intruded during the waning stage of the granulite facies metamorphism in the Yamato Mountains of East Antarctica. The area has been interpreted as part of a Cambrian continental collision zone with regional upper amphibolite to granulite facies metamorphism occurring during...

Description
Summary:Voluminous syenites were intruded during the waning stage of the granulite facies metamorphism in the Yamato Mountains of East Antarctica. The area has been interpreted as part of a Cambrian continental collision zone with regional upper amphibolite to granulite facies metamorphism occurring during ca. 500-660 Ma period.
