Timing of India‐Asia collision: Geological, biostratigraphic, and palaeomagnetic constraints

Y Najman, E Appel, M Boudagher‐Fadel… - Journal of …, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
A range of ages have been proposed for the timing of India‐Asia collision; the range to some
extent reflects different definitions of collision and methods used to date it. In this paper we …

Evidence for mantle metasomatism by hydrous silicic melts derived from subducted oceanic crust

G Prouteau, B Scaillet, M Pichavant, R Maury - Nature, 2001 - nature.com
The low concentrations of niobium, tantalum and titanium observed in island-arc basalts are
thought to result from modification of the sub-arc mantle by a metasomatic agent, deficient in …
