The world turns over: Hadean–Archean crust–mantle evolution

We integrate an updated worldwide compilation of U/Pb, Hf-isotope and trace-element data on zircon, and Re–Os model ages on sulfides and alloys in mantle-derived rocks and xenocrysts, to examine patterns of crustal evolution and crust–mantle interaction from 4.5 Ga to 2.4 Ga ago. The data suggest th...
