The North Atlantic Igneous Province (NAIP) is a large igneous province in the North Atlantic, centered on the Paleogene, the province formed the Thulean Plateau, a large basaltic lava plain, which extended over at least million km 2 ( thousand sq mi) in area and million km 3 ( million cu mi) in volume.

The plateau was broken up during the opening of the North Atlantic. Book Chapter The evolution of the North Atlantic Igneous Province and the opening of the NE Atlantic rift Author(s) David W.

Tertiary volcanism in the NW Atlantic area: update on the repartition and age We have dredged and dated volcanic rocks which give an early Eocene age.

The onshore volcanic pile was formed between and 53 Ma. A quiescent period between 56 and 58 Ma correlates with a This volcanism is contemporaneous with the opening of the NE.

Tertiary Period - Tertiary Period - Volcanism and orogenesis: Volcanism has continued throughout the Cenozoic on land and at the major oceanic ridges, such as the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and the East Pacific Rise, where new seafloor is continuously generated and carried away laterally by seafloor spreading.

Iceland, which was formed in the middle Miocene, is one of the few places where the. Volcanism across the North Atlantic region 62 million years ago is consistent with an Iceland plume source, despite the absence of a classic hotspot track, suggest tomographic images and.Recently, recognition of the potential role of Large Igneous Provinces in affecting ocean and atmosphere systems and biotic evolutionary pathways has lead to increased interest in this province.

This has been further stimulated by the expansion in the search for oil and gas in Mesozoic and tertiary sediments along the NE Atlantic Margin.
