Mawson (continent)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Mawson Continent (or Mawson Block, Mawson Craton[lower-alpha 1]) was a continent that may have formed around about 1730 Ma (1,730 million years ago). It included the Gawler Craton of southern Australia and correlated terrains in Antarctica. Since very little of the historical continent is exposed, the full extent is conjectural.
