A major west-trending lineament marked by a wide belt of highly deformed rocks (the Redbank Zone), lies in the Arunta Complex, north of the Amadeus Basin. Along its southern margin the Zone has been progressively affected by, and is hence older than, migmatization and granite intrusion. The migmatization event yields a Rb-Sr isochron age of 1076 ± 50 m.y. Within the migmatite complex, relicts of a pre-migmatite metasedimentary sequence around the Chewings Range yield a Rb-Sr isochron age of 1620 ± 70 m.y. The migmatites are unconformably overlain by the basal unit of the Amadeus Basin sequence, the Heavitree Quartzite. The 1076 ± 50 m.y. date thus provides a maximum age for the start of sedimentation along the northern margin of the Basin. The existence of a major zone of weakness in the basement probably exerted a strong control on basement and cover deformation during the Palaeozoic Alice Springs Orogeny. |
