Phase equilibria constraints on Archean crustal genesis from crystallization experiments on trondhjemite with water at 10-17 kbar

Year: 1990

Type: book-chapter

Abstract: The formation of continental crust during the Archean and early Proterozoic occurred through \na different mechanisms than the currently active processes of calc-alkaline volcanism in orogenic \nregions. In view that most crustal growth models imply that by the end of the Archean a continental \nmass equivalent to 75% or more of the current crust had evolved, it seems highly relevant to study \nearly crustal genesis.
