Infinite Reservoir

Irreversible chemical differentiation of the mantle’s essentially infinite reservoir for at least the past 3800 Ma has produced new continental, sialic crust during several relatively short ( ca . 100-300 Ma) episodes which were widely separated in time and may have been of global extent. During each episode (termed 'accretion—differentiation superevent’), juvenile sial underwent profound igneous, metamorphic and geochemical differentiation, resulting in thick ( ca . 25-40 km), stable, compositionally gradational, largely indestructible, continental crust exhibiting close grouping of isotopic ages of rock formation, as well as mantle-type initial Sr and Pb isotopic ratios for all major constituents. Isotopic evidence suggests that within most accretiondifferentiation superevents — and especially during the earlier ones - continental growth predominated over reworking of older sialic crust. Reworking of older sialic crust can occur in several types of geological environment and appears to have become more prevalent with the passage of geological time. It is usually clearly distinguishable from continental growth, by application of appropriate age and isotope data.
