A striking feature of the Imilchil alkaline province, in the Moroccan Central High Atlas, is the close association of magmatic intrusions with Triassic sediments exhumed by diapirism. This study reports field, petrographic, geochemical and Sr‐Nd isotopic

Petrochronology and hygrochronology of tectono-metamorphic events [PDF]
U-Th-Pb petrochronology is based on the incontrovertible fact that the diffusion of radiogenic Pb is negligibly small relative to retrograde reaction rates.

Zircon – Tiny but Telling: A Petrochronological Study [PDF]
This thesis concerns the field of petrochronology, where time is linked to the physical conditions (e.g., pressure P and temperature T) of rock-forming events, to provide better constraints on key geological processes such as mountain building ...

Technical note: Rapid phase identification of apatite and zircon grains for geochronology using X-ray micro-computed tomography [PDF]
Apatite and zircon are among the best-studied and most widely used accessory minerals for geochronology and thermochronology. Given that apatite and zircon are often present in the same lithologies, distinguishing the two phases in crushed mineral ...

Phase Relations, Reaction Sequences and Petrochronology [PDF]
At the core of petrochronology is the relationship between geochronology and the petrological evolution of major mineral assemblages. The focus of this chapter is on outlining some of the available strategies to link inferred reaction sequences and microstructures in metamorphic rocks to the ages obtained from geochronology of accessory minerals and ...

Resolving the timescales of magmatic and hydrothermal processes associated with porphyry deposit formation using zircon U–Pb petrochronology [PDF]
Understanding the formation of economically important porphyry Cu–Au deposits requires knowledge of the magmatic-to-hydrothermal processes that act within the much larger magmatic system and the timescales on which they occur.

Some thoughts about eclogites and related rocks [PDF]
The past 40 years have been a golden age for eclogite studies, supported by an ever wider range of instrumentation and enhanced computational capabilities, linked with ongoing developments in thermobarometry and geochronology.
