TLDR
In the Chhotanagpur Gneissic Complex (CGC) as mentioned in this paper, three deformation events were identified (D1, D2 and D3) in granulite facies gneisses that were intruded by anorthosites and expansive granites.

The palaeomagnetically viable, long-lived and all-inclusive Rodinia supercontinent reconstruction

TL;DR: The Rodinia model presented in this paper is a marked departure from standard models, which have accommodated recent discordant palaeomagnetic data either by excluding cratons from Rodinia altogether, or by decreasing duration of the supercontinental assembly.

Growth of the Greater Indian Landmass and its assembly in Rodinia: Geochronological evidence from the Central Indian Tectonic Zone

TL;DR: The Sausar Mobile Belt at the southern margin of the Central Indian Tectonic Zone (CITZ) is a key unit in constraining the timing of continent-continent collision between the North and South Indian cratonic blocks.

Grenvillian age high-pressure upper amphibolite-granulite metamorphism in the Aravalli-Delhi Mobile Belt, Northwestern India: New evidence from monazite chemical age and its implication

TL;DR: In this article, the age of the collisional orogeny in the Aravalli-Delhi Mobile Belt was deduced using electron microprobe (EMP) dating of monazites of two suites of metapelitic to metapsammitic rocks from the Banded Gneissic Complex of Central Rajasthan.

Reconstructions before rifting and drifting reveal the geological connections between Antarctica and its conjugates in Gondwanaland

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the U-Pb zircon geochronology of the reconstructed margins of Antarctica and its conjugates shows that certain coeval structures are aligned across the suture.

Non-ideal interactions in calcic amphiboles and their bearing on amphibole-plagioclase thermometry

TL;DR: In this paper, amphibole thermodynamics are approximated with the symmetric formalism (regular solution model for within-site non-ideality and a reciprocal solution for cross-site terms) in order to formulate improved thermometers for amphibole-plagioclase assemblages.

Least-squares fitting of a straight line.

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed discussion of the best straight line calculation by the method of least squares is given, and the most general solution is found and the conditions under which certain previously de...

An internally consistent dataset with uncertainties and correlations: 3. Applications to geobarometry, worked examples and a computer program

TL;DR: In this paper, a Pascal computer program, thermocalc, is described for various thermodynamic calculations using the thermodynamic dataset presented in earlier papers in this series (Holland & Powell, 1985; Powell & Holland, 1985).
