1.8 Billion Years of Detrital Zircon Recycling Calibrates a Refractory Part of Earth's Sedimentary Cycle. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Detrital zircon studies are providing new insights on the evolution of sedimentary basins but the role of sedimentary recycling remains largely undefined.

Geochemistry and detrital zircon U–Pb–Hf isotopic data reveal the provenance and tectonic setting of the Xujiahe Formation [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe depositional age, provenance and tectonic setting of the Xujiahe Formation have been studied, but remain intensely debated. In this study, we focus on the second segment of the Xujiahe Formation (T3x2) as a research object.

Tectonic exhumation of the Central Alps recorded by detrital zircon in the Molasse Basin, Switzerland [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2020 Eocene to Miocene sedimentary strata of the Northern Alpine Molasse Basin in Switzerland are well studied, yet they lack robust geochronologic and geochemical analysis of detrital zircon for provenance tracing purposes. Here, we present detrital zircon U–

Fission-track Analysis of Detrital Zircon [PDF]
Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry, 2005 Zircon has become one of the most important minerals for studying sediment provenance and the exhumation history of orogenic belts. The reason for this utility is that zircon is common in many igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks, it is resistant to weathering and abrasion, and it can be dated with various isotopic methods having reasonable high

A Review of Research Progress on the Analytical Method of Large-n Detrital Zircon U-Pb Geochronology
Yankuang ceshi, 2022 BACKGROUND Detrital zircon U-Pb geochronology is an important tool for identifying sedimentary provenance and determining the maximum depositional age. The numbers of grains for detrital zircon provenance investigations using laser-ablation inductively ...

Detrital zircon record and tectonic setting [PDF]
Geology, 2012 ABSTRACTDetrital zircon spectra refl ect the tectonic setting of the basin in which they are deposited. Convergent plate margins are charac-terized by a large proportion of zircon ages close to the depositional age of the sediment, whereas sediments in collisional, extensional and intracratonic settings contain greater proportions with older ages that ...

Detrital Zircons in Crustal Evolution: A Perspective from the Indian Subcontinent
Lithosphere, 2022 Detrital zircons are frequently used for crustal evolutionary studies as they sample vast regions of the continental crust. In the present study, we utilise newly compiled U-Pb detrital zircon data from the Indian subcontinent as well as a compilation of
