Superior Craton - Utsailk Domain

Utsailk Domain

The Utsailk domain is made up of pyroxene and hornblende-bearing Leaf River plutons with consistent 2.725-2.723 Ga ages and local inheritance of 2.82 and 2.77 Ga. However, the southern extension of Utsalik domain contains pyroxene-bearing granodiorites both older (2.762 Ga) and younger (2.692 Ga) than the Leaf River suite. (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)
