摘要:

Redetedrination of the metamorphic age of the gsrnet-bearing mafic wholeulite from the Sstrene Island, Esat Antarctica has been made and an isochron of wholerock-garnet-pyroxene-plagioclase is obtained, giving an age of [604±28(2σ)] Ma. It is pointed out that this age represents the time of peak granulite facies metamorphism ofthe area. As to the geological relation of the Sstrene Island with the Bolingen Islandsand the Larsemann Hills to the east, it is deduced from the rock assemblages, metamorphic superposition, spatial changes and metamorphic ages between the above regions that the degree of the superposition of the later low pressure metamorphism is becoming stronger from west to east. While the evolution of the earlier medium pressure to later low pressure implies probably the substages of the same metamorphic cycle.
