Proposal for a terrane-based nomenclature for the Lewisian Gneiss Complex of NW Scotland

The current nomenclature for the Lewisian Gneiss Complex has evolved from lithological and structural correlations made prior to any dating. Initial (flawed) geochronological studies gave some names an apparent chronological standing but, as work advanced, fitting events into a coherent regional fra...
