Collision between the Kuujjuaq terrane and the Labrador Trough to the west produced intense deformation, associated with large-scale, southwest-directed transport. The Kuujjuaq batholith, thought to be a subduction-related granitoid suite, was emplaced at a late stage in the deformation. Extensive post-tectonic metamorphism involved retrogression of early granulite-facies mineral assemblages. Our interpretation is that the Kuujjuaq terrane was subjected to deep and protracted burial (>40 m.y.). This is consistent with, and most easily explained by, its development within a major continental collision zone such as that between India and Asia.}, number={4}, journal={Geoscience Canada}, author={Perreault, Serge and Hynes, Andrew}, year={1990}, month={Dec.} }
