Insights from easternmost Tethys: Slab rollback, mantle exhumation, and UHT metamorphism in Eastern Indonesia (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pownall, J., Hall, R., Forster, M., & Lister, G. (2018, April). Insights from easternmost Tethys: Slab rollback, mantle exhumation, and UHT metamorphism in Eastern Indonesia. Presented at 20th EGU General Assembly, EGU2018, Vienna, Austria

The collision of Australia with SE Asia around 23 million years ago marked the closure of the eastern Tethys. Continued convergence of these two continents has since resulted in a complex array of active subduction zones, young mountain belts, and ne...

The island of Seram, eastern Indonesia, incorporates Miocene ultrahigh-temperature (UHT; greater than 900°C) garnet–sillimanite granulites that formed by extensional exhumation of hot mantle rocks behind the rolling-back Banda Arc. UHT metamorphic co... Read More about Miocene UHT granulites from Seram, eastern Indonesia: a geochronological–REE study of zircon, monazite and garnet.
