    COVER: Paleoproterozoic sedimentary rocks in Georgetown, Queensland, Australia. Detrital zircon and paleocurrent data from these rocks suggest that they were sourced from Laurentia. See “Laurentian crust in northeast Australia: Implications for the assembly of the supercontinent Nuna” by Nordsvan et al., p. 521–524.
