Summary
Abstract: 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 between intrusive igneous rocks and the metamorphosed sediments into which they are emplaced has enabled the relative age of events to be determined. The earliest plutons were intruded into already ... View entire text
