Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces: A Comparative Approach offers a comprehensive description of large igneous provinces (LIPs), presenting the geological, geophysical, and geochemical aspects of a selection of Phanerozoic LIPs. The formation of these magmatic provinces, often associated with rapid emplacement, continental break-up, mineral deposits, and mass extinctions, remains a subject of debate and discovery. This book provides a foundational framework by utilizing a template format to facilitate chapter-by-chapter comparisons of the salient features of LIPs. Arranged chronologically, each chapter contributes to a better understanding of large igneous provinces as a whole and allows the reader to appreciate the similarities and differences between individual LIPs. With contributions by experts on each LIP, this book equips readers with state-of-the-art information on 19 important LIPs, including descriptions of geological setting, geophysical characteristics, petrogenesis, volcanology and emplacement mechanisms, geochronology, mineralogy, as well as historical context, unique features, and syntheses. This book presents a new way of looking at LIPs and provides a valuable resource for any reader interested in these
