Neoproterozoic alkaline–carbonatite complexes in the Southern Granulite Terrain, India: Geochemical, isotopic and geochronologic insights into lithospheric mantle dynamics

Key Points

• Geochemical analysis shows that alkaline-carbonatite complexes reveal insights into lithospheric mantle dynamics.
• Isotopic data indicates that the origins of these rocks are linked to significant geological processes over time.
• Geochronology methods provide age estimates for these complexes, enhancing understanding of their formation period.
• The findings suggest that the Neoproterozoic period was crucial for the tectonic history of the Southern Granulite Terrain.
