Oldlands : characteristics and implications based on the australian experience

Auteur :
TWIDALE, C.R.

Description :
Oldlands are complex surfaces of low relief preserved on Precambrian shields and cratons and Paleozoic massifs. Interpretation of their character and age is difficult, but as a consequence of its particular location and of conceptual developments, much of the Australian Craton is now susceptible to analysis in terms of exhumation, etching, and multistage development. Exhumed surfaces of many ages are recorded.
