Partial melting took place during the low-P/high-T stage,because probable melt of leucocratic gneiss contains cordierite.The field relationships and petrography of the syenite at Filchnerfjella are similar to those of post-tectonic plutons from central Dronning Maud Land,and most of the post-tectonic intrusive rocks have within-plate geochemical features.The structural history in Filchnerfjella and surrounding areas can be divided into the Pan-African stage and the Meso to Cenozoic stage that relates to the break-up of Gondwana.}, pages = {108--136}, title = {Geology of eastern Muhlig -Hofmannfjella and Filchnerfjella in Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica; A preliminary report of a Japan-Norway-Germany joint geological investigation}, volume = {16}, year = {2003} }
