An Ediacaran orogeny in subglacial East Antarctica is uncovered by detrital garnet geochronology
Abstract Detrital minerals provide valuable insights into the tectonic history of continents. Uranium-lead dating of detrital zircon is widely used to characterize the magmatic history of continents but is generally insensitive to metamorphism accompanying the production and reworking of crust durin...
