Time constraints on the formation of lithospheric mantle beneath cratons : a Re-Os isotope and platinum group element study of peridotite xenoliths from northern Canada and Lesotho
Understanding the generation and evolution of cratonic lithospheric keels requires detailed knowledge of their age, timescale of formation, and the relationship between the crust and mantle part of the lithosphere. The Re-Os isotope system has been instrumental in providing an improved understanding...
