Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a suite of anorthosites, gabbros, mangerites, granulite facies gneisses, and amphibolite facia facia gneis were selected from three separate anorthosite intrusions and their associated country rocks in the Precambrian Lofoten-Versteraalen high-grade metamorphic terrain.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the formation and growth of continental crust in the Archean have been evaluated through models of subduction-accretion and mantle plume, and the authors showed that the Nilgiri block in southern India exposes exhumed Neoarchean lower crust, uplifted to heights of 2500 m above sea level along the north western margin of the Peninsula.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The Suyingdi adakitic rhyolites are high-K calc-alkaline in composition, displaying a weakly peraluminous character as mentioned in this paper, and they have low MgO content (020-070 wt%) and Mg # values (24-39), as well as low Sc (225-276 ppm), Cr (8-14 ppm), Co (16-35 ppm), Ni (2-3 ppm), and Ni(2-5 ppm) concentrations.
