The Pirrit Hills are located in the Ellsworth–Whitmore Mountains of West Antarctica. The Pirrit Hills granite exhibits significant negative Eu anomalies (Eu/Eu* = 0.01~0.25) and a REE tetrad effect indicating intensive magmatic differentiation. Whole-rock Rb-Sr and Sm-Nd geochronologic analysis of the Pirrit Hills granite gave respective ages of 172.8 ± 2.4 Ma with initial 87Sr/86Sr = 0.7065 ± 0.0087 Ma and 169 ± 12 Ma with initial 144Nd/143Nd = 0.512207 ± 0.000017. The isotopic ratio data indicate that the Pirrit Hills granite formed by the remelting of Mesoproterozoic mantle-derived crustal materials. Both chondrite-normalized REE patterns and Sr-Nd isotopic data indicate that the Pirrit Hills granite has geochemical features of chondrite-normalized REE patterns indicating that REE tetrad effects and negative Eu anomalies in the highly fractionated granites were produced from magmatic differentiation under the magmatic-hydrothermal transition system.
