Published June 1, 2026

Abstract

Extreme values provide natural reference points within many scientific disciplines.

In geology, these include the highest elevations, deepest basins, oldest crustal regions, largest volcanic provinces, and most concentrated resource systems.

This paper evaluates geological extremes through comparative distribution analysis.
