Establishing how tectonic plates have moved since deep time is essential for understanding
how Earth's geodynamic system has evolved and operates, thus answering longstanding …

Much has been learned about Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and their database greatly
expanded since their first formal categorization in the early 1990s. This progress provides an …

The structure of upper crustal magma plumbing systems controls the distribution of
volcanism and influences tectonic processes. However, delineating the structure and …

The origin of the Antarctic continent can be traced to a relatively small late Archaean cratonic
nucleus centred on the Terre Adélie regions of East Antarctica and the Gawler Craton region …

Cratons are Earth's ancient continental land masses that remain stable for billions of years.
The mantle roots of cratons are renowned as being long-lived, stable features of Earth's …

Large igneous provinces (LIPs) are high volume, short duration pulses of intraplate
magmatism consisting mainly of flood basalts and their associated plumbing system, but …

Large igneous provinces (LIPs) are commonly associated with breakup of continents, and
therefore, are a critical source of information to constrain paleocontinental reconstructions …

The location of magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE sulfide deposits is related to lithospheric architecture,
particularly that of the subcontinental lithospheric mantle (SCLM). At crustal levels, this …

Earth history is punctuated by events during which large volumes of mafic magmas were
generated and emplaced by processes distinct from “normal” seafloor spreading and …

The western two-thirds of Australia is underlain by Precambrian rocks that are divisible into
three Archean to Paleoproterozoic cratons, the West Australian, North Australian and South …
