Best name

[edit]

I am considering this should be renamed to Vishnu Basement Rocks per this discussion. Please contribute there if you have any useful insight, or any comments at all. Thanks. --(AfadsBad (talk) 21:40, 3 September 2013 (UTC))[reply]

Zoroaster Plutonic Complex

[edit]

According to "Geologic Unit: Zoroaster", the "Zoroaster Plutonic Complex" is still a valid stratigraphic term as judged by the USGS. Also, it is used in current papers. For example, page 8 of the the supplemental material to the open access paper:

Thurston, O.G., Guenthner, W.R., Karlstrom, K.E., Ricketts, J.W., Heizler, M.T. and Timmons, J.M., 2021.
