The largest plagiogranite on Earth formed by re- melting of juvenile proto-continental crust

The growth of continental crust through melt extraction from the mantle is a critical component of the chemical evolution of the Earth and the development of plate tectonics. However, the mechanisms involved remain debated. Here, we conduct petrological and geochemical analyses on a large (up to 500...
