Superior Craton - Tikkerutuk Domain

Tikkerutuk Domain

The Tikkerutuk domain represents a north-trending, 50-km wide calc-alkaline magmatic arc with ages between 2.71 and 2.70 Ga, that extends southward into the Bienville subprovince on the basis of aeromagnetic anomalies and geochronology. Zircon inheritance ages indicate that the Tikkerutuk area was built upon antecedent arcs of 2.84, 2.77 and 2.725 Ga. (Percival et al., 2001).
