Sources of continental magmatism adjacent to the late Archean Kolar Suture Zone, south India: distinct isotopic and elemental signatures of two late Archean magmatic series

Conspicuous Nd, Sr and Pb isotopic differences have been noted between the Archean gneiss terranes adjoining the suture at the Kolar Schist Belt in south India. Data support the hypothesis that the belt is the site of a suture zone.
