Connected Sites: 8

The Triassic is a geologic period and system that extends from about 250 to 200 Ma (252.2 - 0.5 to 201.3 - 0.2 million years ago). It is the first period of the Mesozoic Era, and lies between the Permian and Jurassic periods. Both the start and end of the period are marked by major extinction events. (wiki)

    The Putorana Plateau Originates From A Permian- Triassic Mantle Plume, Which Is An Immense Upwelling Of Magma, Resulting In Extended Tectonic Movements And Extensive Volcanism. This Created A Basalt And Tuff Plateau In Which Rivers And Streams Carved Valleys And Canyons Over Millions Of Years. (Ab Ev)
