Detrital zircon U–Pb ages and Hf isotope analyses of modern and Quaternary sediments in China: A new dataset with preliminary analysis

Geoscience Data Journal
Developments of detrital zircon geochronology have resulted in an explosion of publications that report or discuss detrital zircon data. Combined detrital zircon U–Pb ages with Hf isotope analyses from modern and Quaternary sediments have been widely ...

Sedimentary Provenance Changes Constrain the Eocene Initial Uplift of the Central Pamir, NW Tibetan Plateau

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Pamir Plateau region of the Northwestern Tibetan Plateau forms a prominent tectonic salient, separating the Tajik and Tarim basins. However, the topographic evolution of the Pamir Plateau remains elusive, despite the key role of this region played in

Downcurrent variation in submarine channel‐fill architecture from the shelf to upper slope

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition between the shelf and the upper slope is often considered an area of sediment bypass, where steeper gradients increase flow velocities and maintain particles in suspension. In addition to transferring sediments into deeper basins, upper‐slope areas can also host channelised submarine deposits.

Cadomian/Pan-African consolidation of the Iberian Massif assessed by its detrital and inherited zircon populations: is the ~610Ma age peak a persistent Cadomian magmatic inheritance or the key to unravel its Pan-African basement?

Geologica Acta, 2022
This work assessed the age distribution of Cadomian/Pan-African orogenic events (550-590 and 605-790Ma, respectively) in several zones of Iberian Massif by means of detrital and inherited zircon analysis compilation. Detrital zircon age spectra show that

Salt Range Formation of Pakistan Preserves Unique Record of Volcanic Fertilization During the Ediacaran Shuram Excursion

Terra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thin, discontinuous, organic‐rich oil shale beds in the siliciclastic‐evaporitic Salt Range Formation (SRF) of Pakistan are of approximate Neoproterozoic to Cambrian age based on stratigraphic constraints. The beds are enriched (26–43 wt.% total organic carbon, TOC) in aliphatic organic matter (OM) of low thermal maturity despite their ...

A database of detrital zircon U–Pb ages in the North China Craton from the Paleoproterozoic to the early Palaeozoic

Geoscience Data Journal
U–Pb dating of detrital zircon is widely used in geology to identify the source of sediments and constrain palaeogeography and tectonic history. We collected the detrital zircon from the Paleoproterozoic to early Palaeozoic strata to understand the North

Recycling of Paleoproterozoic and Neoproterozoic crust recorded in Lower Paleozoic metasandstones of the Northern Gemericum (Western Carpathians, Slovakia): Evidence from detrital zircons

Geologica Carpathica, 2019
U–Pb (SHRIMP) detrital zircon ages from the Early Paleozoic meta-sedimentary rocks of the Northern Gemericum Unit (the Smrečinka Formation) were used to characterize their provenance.

Multi‐Mineral Geochronology Across the Neoproterozoic Brasília Nappe Stack: Constraints on Thermal Resetting and Metamorphic Architecture

Terra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Southern Brasília Orogen formed during Western Gondwana's final assembly and comprises nappe systems piled against the São Francisco Craton. We present new rutile U–Pb ages from the lowermost Canastra Group (> 2.2 Ga) and the uppermost Carrancas Group (~560 Ma), integrated with published zircon, monazite, garnet, and mica ages from the ...

A review of U-Pb detrital zircon systematics from Cambrian- Lower Devonian rocks of the Moroccan Meseta

Geogaceta, 2022
U-Pb geochronological analysis of detrital zircon grains is a powerful tool to decipher the pre-Mesozoic paleogeography. In this work, we present a sediment provenance study based on a compilation of 41 Cambrian-Early Devonian siliciclastic samples from

Detrital Avalonian zircons in the Laurentian Southern Uplands terrane, Scotland [PDF]

Geology, 2003
The Silurian–Ordovician Southern Uplands terrane occupies a key position in the Caledonian orogen, yet its genesis is controversial. Marginal-basin, backarc, and forearc tectonic regimes have all been invoked as operative at the Laurentian margin of the Iapetus Ocean.
