释义 |
The Winnipegosis komatiite belt[1] is an approximately 150 x 30 km linear greenstone belt located in Manitoba, Canada. It has no surface exposure, and was identified based on geophysical signatures and drilling during mining exploration by Cominco during the 1990s [2]. The belt has an age of 1870 ± 7 Ma [3], and is predominantly composed of basaltic and komatiitic volcanic rocks, with minor intrusive igneous and sedimentary rocks [1][2][3]. The belt is considered part of the larger Circum-Superior[4] Large Igneous Province, and was likely generated by a mantle plume [3][5]. See also{{Portal|Volcanism of Canada}}
