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).

Famous quotes containing the word domain:

    The vice named surrealism is the immoderate and impassioned use of the stupefacient image or rather of the uncontrolled provocation of the image for its own sake and for the element of unpredictable perturbation and of metamorphosis which it introduces into the domain of representation; for each image on each occasion forces you to revise the entire Universe.
    Louis Aragon (1897–1982)
