Deconvolving the pre-Himalayan Indian margin – tales of crustal growth and destruction [PDF]
The metamorphic core of the Himalaya is composed of Indian cratonic rocks with two distinct crustal affinities that are defined by radiogenic isotopic geochemistry and detrital zircon age spectra.

The paper presents the first results of U-Th-Pb (LA-ICP-MS) isotopic dating of detrital zircons from the Paleozoic (?) metasedimentary rocks of the Nilan Terrane of the Mongol-Okhotsk orogenic belt to refine the age estimates and determine their probable

Guadalupe pluton–Mariposa Formation age relationships in the southern Sierran Foothills: Onset of Mesozoic subduction in northern California? [PDF]
We report a new 153 ± 2 Ma SIMS U-Pb date for zircons from the hypabyssal Guadalupe pluton which crosscuts and contact metamorphoses upper crustal Mariposa slates in the southern Sierra.

Exhumation of the Sierra de Cameros (Iberian Range, Spain): constraints from low-temperature thermochronology [PDF]
We present new fission-track and (U–Th)/He data from apatite and zircon in order to reconstruct the exhumation of the Sierra de Cameros, in the northwestern part of Iberian Range, Spain. Zircon fission-track ages from samples from the depocentre of the

Late Cenozoic metamorphic evolution and exhumation of Taiwan [PDF]
The Taiwan mountain belt is composed of a Cenozoic slate belt (Hsuehshan Range units, HR, and Backbone Slates, BS) and of accreted polymetamorphic basement rocks (Tananao Complex, TC).

A tonalitic analogue to ancient detrital zircon
Abstract A zircon population from an Archean tonalite sample from southern West Greenland has been used as a source analogue in order to test common methods and approaches applied to ancient detrital zircon populations. Measurements of U-Th-Pb, oxygen and Lu-Hf isotopes as well as rare earth element and Ti concentrations were made in these zircon ...

Australian-derived detrital zircons in the Permian-Triassic Gympie terrane (eastern Australia): evidence for an autochthonous origin [PDF]
The Tasmanides in eastern Australia record accretionary processes along the eastern Gondwana margin during the Phanerozoic. The Gympie terrane is the easternmost segment of the Tasmanides, but whether its origin was autochthonous or allochthonous is a ...
