Mantle Exhumation and Post‐Rift Magmatism at an Oblique Magma‐Poor Continental Margin
Abstract Continental breakup is a fundamental tectonic process, which leads to seafloor spreading and the generation of oceanic crust. However, the current understanding of continental margins, based largely on 2‐D seismic transects, is inadequate to capture the spatial complexity of crustal evoluti...
