The Antarctic Margin

  • Chapter
The Ocean Basins and Margins

Abstract

The Indian Ocean sector of the Antarctic Margin is defined for the purpose of this review to include the sector of the continent lying between 20°E and 160°E longitude (Fig. 1). All the known exposures of bedrock in this sector are no more than 700 km from the coast, and many lie within 200 km of it. They are composed largely of highly deformed and metamorphosed Precambrian rocks of the East Antarctic Shield. Subordinate are low-grade metasedimentary rocks of late Precambrian or early Paleozoic age, early Paleozoic intrusive rocks, late Paleozoic sediments, and Mesozoic-Cenozoic igneous rocks. The area covered in this review overlaps with the portion of East Antarctica (to 75°E longitude) covered by Dalziel and Elliot (1973).
