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:

    Without metaphor the handling of general concepts such as culture and civilization becomes impossible, and that of disease and disorder is the obvious one for the case in point. Is not crisis itself a concept we owe to Hippocrates? In the social and cultural domain no metaphor is more apt than the pathological one.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
