摘要:
Sediments of the Caples terrane in the Thomson Mountains have been mapped in five units, namely Bold Peak, Kays Creek, Upper Peak, Momus Sandstone, and Mt Campbell Formations. Each unit has a distinctive clastic petrography and a diagnostic heavy mineral assemblage, as well as being sedimentologically distinct. The Caples terrane as a whole is quartz poor, and clastic assemblages are dominated by volcanic (andesitic) and plutonic (dioritic) detritus.
