Eastern Dharwar Craton, India: Continental lithosphere growth by accretion of diverse plume and arc terranes

Greenstone belts of the eastern Dharwar Craton, India are reinterpreted as composite tectonostratigraphic terranes of accreted plume-derived and convergent margin-derived magmatic sequences based on new high-precision elemental data.
