Geography
[edit]The Kudaru ring complex was discovered to contain mildly alkaline fayalite granite porphyry, peralkaline arfvedsonite granite and metaluminous biotite granite, emplaced between 176.9 ± 2.5 and 180.55 ± 0.6 Ma. These rocks, typical of A-type granites "are characterized by variably high alkalis, HFSEs, Ga/Al ratios, and zircon saturation temperature".[4]
