1. Age determination of the detrital zircon component of crustal slices of Ross Orogen from the Skelton Glacier and Royal Society Ranges areas [K062_2003_2004_NZ_1]
It is suggested that the Ross Orogeny is composed of a wide variety of crustal slices that are exotic to their present location and were accreted to the East Antarctic craton during the lower paleozoic ...


2. Geological mapping and analysis of granitoid basement rocks near the Carlyon Glacier and Brown Hills area to determine the tectonic environment during the Ross Orogeny [K062_2000_2001_NZ_1]
The Ross Orogeny refers to a sequence of geological events when East and West Antarctica met, resulting in subduction with associated deformation, crustal thickening, metamorphism and igneous activity. ...


3. Geological mapping and geochemical and geochronological analysis of anomalous plutonic rocks in the Koettlitz Walcott Glacier and Skelton-Glacier and Hoopers Crags area [K062_1997_1999_NZ_1]
The Ross Orogeny refers to the collision event when East and West Antarctica met, resulting in subduction with associated deformation, crustal thickening, metamorphism and igneous activity. In the ...


4. Geological mapping and geochemical and geochronological analysis of metamorphic basement rocks and the McMurdo volcanics in the Skelton-Glacier and Hoopers Crags area [K062_1998_1999_NZ_1]
The Ross Orogeny refers to the collision event when East and West Antarctica met, resulting in subduction with associated deformation, crustal thickening, metamorphism and igneous activity. The nature ...


5. Geological mapping and geochemical and geochronology analysis of rock samples from Panarama Ridge in the Koetllitz-Walcott Glacier area [K062_1997_1998_NZ_1]
The Ross Orogeny refers to the collision event when East and West Antarctica met, resulting in subduction with associated deformation, crustal thickening, metamorphism and igneous activity. In the ...


6. The distribution of intrusive plutonic igneous rocks at Reeves Bluff and the Western Worcester Ranges by geological mapping and geochemical and geochronological analysis of samples [K062_2001_2002_NZ_1]
The relationship between the processes of metamorphism, magmatism and deformation that took place during the Ross Orogeny has been investigated. Previous work has established that the relationship ...
