Large igneous provinces (LIPs) are massive crustal emplacements of predominantly iron- and magnesium-rich (mafic) rock that form by processes other than normal seafloor spreading; they are the dominant form of near-surface magmatism on the terrestrial planets and moons of our solar system.

Hot Spots and Large Igneous Provinces
2022This chapter examines the tectonic geomorphology of hot spot volcanism and specifically oceanic hot spot volcanism. The best way to explain and understand volcanic edifices development above hot spots is by using nested scales: starting from a large overview to progressively more and more detailed scales.

Coeval mafic igneous rocks emplaced rapidly over;1.5 3 10 6 km 2 in western and central Australia represent the erosional rem- nants of a late Mesoproterozoic large igneous province, named here the Warakurna large igneous province. SHRIMP U-Pb dating of rocks separated by as much as 1500 km indicates that the main episode of magmatism occurred between ...

Chapter 2.1b Ferrar Large Igneous Province: petrology
Geological Society, London, Memoirs, 2021Abstract The Lower Jurassic Ferrar Large Igneous Province consists predominantly of intrusive rocks, which crop out over a distance of 3500 km. In comparison, extrusive rocks are more restricted geographically. Geochemically, the province is divided into the Mount Fazio Chemical Type, forming more than 99% of the exposed province,

Large igneous provinces and plate tectonics
2000© 2000 by the American Geophysical Union. Large Igenous Provinces (LIPs) constitute broad areas, > 10 5 km 2 , of mafic volcanic and plutonic rocks erupted over ~106 yr. Compared with plate dimensions, LIPs are smaller, localized features; they form both in plate interiors and at plate boundaries.

Large Igneous Provinces: A Planetary Perspective
2013Large igneous provinces (LIPs) are common on the Moon, Mars and Venus, and their presence, characteristics, and geologic and temporal settings offer a potentially important perspective for interpreting LIPs on Earth. On the Moon, shallow magma reservoirs and large shield volcanoes are unknown.

Large igneous provinces (LIPs) and carbonatites
Mineralogy and Petrology, 2009There is increasing evidence that many carbonatites are linked both spatially and temporally with large igneous provinces (LIPs), i.e. high volume, short duration, intraplate-type, magmatic events consisting mainly of flood basalts and their plumbing systems (of dykes, sills and layered intrusions).

AbstractThe Tarim large igneous province (TLIP) corresponds to a transitional large igneous province based on the high proportion of felsic rocks, classifying between mafic and silicic large igneous provinces. Here we investigate a bimodal suite including trachydacite, rhyolite, and basanite from the Northern Tarim Uplift using petrological ...

Chapter 2.1a Ferrar Large Igneous Province: volcanology
Geological Society, London, Memoirs, 2021Abstract Preserved rocks in the Jurassic Ferrar Large Igneous Province consist mainly of intrusions, and extrusive rocks, the topic of this chapter, comprise the remaining small component. They crop out in a limited number of areas in the Transantarctic Mountains and southeastern Australia.
