Post-collisional batholiths do contribute to continental growth

Post-collisional voluminous silicic magmatism is represented in most orogens across the world in the form of large granodiorite batholiths and minor intermediate and mafic intrusions, postdating 5-30 Ma the age of the collisional paroxysm responsible of the main mountain building events. Post-collis...
