Abstract

Highlights: [•] Nilgiri Block dominantly composed of charnockite-mafic granulite-amphibolite-ultramafic suite. [•] Geochemical features reveal arc magmatism in a convergent margin. [•] Zircon U–Pb ages reveal Neoarchean magmatism closely followed by metamorphism. [•] Correlation with Neoarchean crustal growth in the Early Earth. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
