Abstract
The Rogaland Anorthosite Province (RAP) – a typical Proterozoic Anorthosite–Mangerite– Charnockite (AMC) plutonic complex exposed in the Sveconorwegian orogen in South Norway – was emplaced diapirically through the crust, along a shear zone, at c. 933–916 Ma. The shear zone, recently defined as the Farsund Shear Zone (FSZ), crops out along the eastern flank of the anorthosite province, and it is made up of strongly foliated, steeply dipping, banded gneisses. The banded gneisses comprise a diversity of lithologies: metabasites, granitoid gneisses, augen gneisses and kinzigitic gneisses. Major and trace element compositions of samples mostly from the banded gneisses
期刊介绍:
The Norwegian Journal of Geology publishes high-quality, fully peer-review papers from all geoscientific disciplines. Papers are commonly based on regional studies and should emphasise the development of understanding of fundamental geological processes. More specialised papers can also be submitted, but should be written in a way that is easily understood by nonspecialists, and illustrate the progress being made within that specific topic in geosciences. We also encourage initiatives for thematic issues within the scope of the Journal.
