Abstract
SummaryGranitic rocks in the central Transantarctic Mountains were emplaced and crystallized during the Early Ordovician Period, as indicated by Rb-Sr whole-rock isochron dates (488 and 463 Ma) and a concordant U-Pb date on sphene (476 Ma). Other U-Pb data provide evidence for an old inherited component of zircon in the granites.
