Destabilization of Long‐Lived Hadean Protocrust and the Onset of Pervasive Hydrous Melting at 3.8 Ga

open access: yesAGU Advances, 2022
The nature of Earth's earliest crust and crustal processes remain unresolved questions in Precambrian geology. While some hypotheses suggest that plate tectonics began in the Hadean, others suggest that the Hadean was characterized by long‐lived ...

Ages of detrital zircons from lower Cambrian sandstones of North-Eastern periphery of the East European platform - sings of provenances of Ediacaran - early Cambrian Mezen basin

open access: yesRUDN Journal of Engineering Research, 2014
The detrital zircons were delivered from sandstones of Brusov Fm. of Mezen basin. Absence of detrital zircons with 750-510 Ma and availability of two distinct populations - Paleoproterozoic and Archean - with ages resembled well known ages of crystalline

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

open access: yesGeoscience 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

LA-ICP-MS U-Pb geochronology of detrital zircons from the Jining Complex, North China Craton and its tectonic significance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
LA-ICP-MS U-Pb zircon dating and cathodoluminescene (CL) image analysis were carried out to determine the protolith and metamorphic ages of high-grade Al-rich gneisses, named as "khondalites", from the Jining Complex of the North China Craton (NCC).
