Diamonds mined from the Victor kimberlite (Ontario, Canada) grew at ~ 720 Ma in lherzolite-dominated substrates that themselves were generated ca. 400 My earlier by metasomatic overprinting of refractory harzburgites-dunites with proven Archean heritage.

Stratigraphy of metamorphic Precambrian complexes related to Paleo-Proterozoic is controversial. An additional sign permitting to correlate strata may be their material composition because in the Precambrian composition of deep fluids changed regularly.

Felsic and mafic magma commingling accompanied by Ca-metasomatism of xenocrysts, followed by K-metasomatism of solidified felsic tonalite to form quartz monzonite and granite in the Chief Lake granitic complex south of Sudbury, Ontario, Canada [PDF]
South of Little Raft Lake in the Chief Lake granitic complex, south of Sudbury, Canada, Na-rich, felsic magma locally commingled with a Na-rich mafic magma. In addition, subhedral quartz and large sodic plagioclase phenocrysts floated-off from the felsic

Prolonged mantle residence of zircon xenocrysts from the western Eger rift
Zircon is a common mineral in continental crustal rocks. As it is not easily altered in processes such as erosion or transport, this mineral is often used in the reconstruction of geological processes such as the formation and evolution of the continents.
