This dataset is derived from the map product ‘Geology of the Larsemann Hills, Princess Elizabeth Land, Antarctica’, published in 2007.The Larsemann Hills region is dominated by two major lithological associations, a Mesoproterozoic to Neoproterozoic felsic dominated orthogneiss complex (Søstrene Orthogneiss) which occurs as basement to a sequence of pelitic, psammitic and felsic paragneisses (Brattstrand Paragneiss) and felsic intrusives. Geochonrology indicates that the region experienced medium to low pressure granulite facies metamorphism during the Early Paleozoic (~515-530 Ma). Although the paragneiss sequences record no evidence of earlier metamorphism, relics of a previous metamorphic event at ~1000-950 Ma are preserved in the Søstrene Orthogneiss. Within the Larsemann Hills region, the Early Paleozoic event is characterised by peak metamorphism of ~7 kbar at ~800-850°C, with the post-peak evolution characterised by decompression, with some cooling, to 4 kbars at 750°C, then to 2-3 kbar at 600-650°C during final stages of orogenesis, with exhumation largely driven by crustal extension. The Larsemann Hills are unique for the variety of phosphorous and boron minerals, some of which are found in spectacular specimens, and others of which are not found elsewhere in the world. Three of the nine phosphate minerals found are new to science: stornesite-(yytrium), tassieite and chopinite. For this dataset release the stratigraphic units from the 2007 map have been named to conform to stratigraphic nomenclature and reserved in the Australian Stratigraphic Units Database.Fieldwork was supported by Australian Antarctic Science Program Project 2350 and U.S. National Science Foundation OPP-0228842</DIV></DIV></DIV> © Commonwealth of Australia (Geoscience Australia) 2012.

The attribute structure of the dataset has also been revised to be more compatible with the GeoSciML data standard, published by the IUGS Commission for Geoscience Information. The first edition of this national dataset was first released in 2008, with map data compiled largely from simplifying and edgematching existing 1:250 000 scale geological maps. Where these maps were not current, more recent source maps ranging in scale from 1:50 000 to 1:1 million were used. In some areas where the only available geological maps were old and poorly located, some repositioning of mapping using recent satellite imagery or geophysics was employed. Positional accuracy of this data ranges between 50 and 1000 metres, depending on the quality and scale of the original source data. Positional accuracy is attributed in the data at a feature level. True GA tests 20000101 Attribute data is the best available at the time of publication. All geological units are fully attributed with geological unit name, hierarchy, age, and lithological composition according to the Australian Stratigraphic Units Database (http://www.ga.gov.au/products-services/data-applications/reference-databases/stratigraphic-units.html), which is the authoritative lexicon of Australian lithostratigraphic units. True GA tests 20000101 This ESRI Geodatabase dataset has been constructed using ESRI's polygon and line topology verification, ensuring all geological unit (polygon) boundaries are overlain by corresponding geological contacts (lines). The data structure conforms to the Geoscience Australia standard for a digital geological map dataset, which is in turn compatible with the GeoSciML data transfer standard published by the IUGS Commission for the management and Application of Geoscience Information (www.geosciml.org). Systematic checks have been made of both unit and line information throughout the entire data set.
