A Paleo-Mesoproterozoic supercontinent: assembly, growth and breakup
G Zhao, M Sun, SA Wilde, S Li - Earth-Science Reviews, 2004 - Elsevier
Geological and paleomagnetic data support the hypothesis that a Paleo-Mesoproterozoic

Evolution of the Australian lithosphere
The evolution of the Australian plate can be interpreted in a plate‐tectonic paradigm in
which lithospheric growth occurred via vertical and horizontal accretion. The lithospheric …
