“…Recent detailed mapping and petrologic analysis indicate that rocks previously assigned to the Robertson River Formation include a series of granitoids, syenitoids, felsites, and rhyolites that were emplaced episodically during an extended period of magmatism lasting more than 30 million years (Arav, 1989;Hawkins, 1991;Lowe, 1990;Tollo and others, 1991;Tollo and Aleinikoff, 1992;Tollo and Arav, 1992;Tollo and Lowe, 1994 ). These studies demonstrate that the Robertson River includes at least eight units that are distinguished by characteristic mineral composition, texture, bulk chemical composition, and age as determined by U-Pb isotopic analysis.…”
