Front Cover: Big Ben on Heard Island. Will Powell joined an Australian National Antarctic Research expedition to Heard Island in 2000, to collect mantle xenoliths from the basalts. The analysis of these xenoliths will be linked with ongoing studies of similar material from Kerguelen Island to trace the evolution of the mantle lithosphere beneath this major oceanic plateau, and provide analogies to the early development of continents (see Research Highlights)
Front cover frieze: Grains (average size 1 cm) of the GEMOC GJ-1 zircon standard for U-Pb dating, donated by Jerry Yakoumelos of G & J Gems Pty Ltd, Sydney (see Research Highlights).
