Microplate tectonics: New insights from micro-blocks in the global oceans, continental margins and deep mantle

S Li, Y Suo, X Li, B Liu, L Dai, G Wang, J Zhou, Y Li… - Earth-Science …, 2018‏ - Elsevier
Any plate has a growth process from small to large. The micro-blocks or micro-plates are
sometimes the precursors of large plates. The origin, growth, aborting, extinction and …
