Old subcontinental mantle zircon below Oahu
Communications Earth & Environment, 2021 Oceanic mantle-derived zircon grains recovered from pyroxenite xenoliths in Hawaii have 14-million-year-old rims, Cretaceous cores and Proterozoic lutetium-hafnium model-ages, according to mass spectrometry and electron microprobe analyses.

Dating mylonitic overprinting of ancient rocks
Communications Earth & Environment, 2023 The timing of deformation in ancient shear zones of the Akia Terrane, Greenland, is recorded by the Proterozoic Rb-Sr age of mylonitic biotite which is determined through collision cell laser ablation and inverse thermal history modelling.

Anorogenic granitoids of the Early Precambrian magmatism of the Ukrainian shield [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1993 The Early Precambrian magmatism of the Ukrainian shield evolved through regular changes in tectonic setting, composition and depth of formation of rocks of three magmatic associations: (1) granitic, (2) diorite-granitic and (3) anorthosite-granitic. They

Proterozoic basins of Canada: Early Proterozoic sequences in Labrador
, 1981 Early Proterozoic ( Aphebian) sedimentary and volcanic rocks in Labrador are described from two tectonic belts: the Churchill Province of western Labrador, and the Makkovik Subprovince of eastern Labrador. The Aphebian in the Churchill Province is represented mainly by the Labrador Trough ( Kaniapiskau Supergroup) but also in the Laporte Croup, Lake ...

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2014 The recently discovered high, plume-like 3He/4He ratios at Rungwe Volcanic Province (RVP) in southern Tanzania, similar to those at the Main Ethiopian Rift in Ethiopia, strongly suggest that magmatism associated with continental rifting along the entire ...

Cryogenian Glacial Erosion and Tectonics as Agents of Crustal Recycling
Terra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 87-96, April 2026.ABSTRACT Zircon preserves evidence of recycling processes that link surface environments to the mantle. Combined δ18O‐εHf in zircon fingerprints magmatic sources and tracks how crustal material is reworked over time. We apply statistical analyses to a global compilation that apparently resolves shifts in zircon U–Pb, δ18O, and Lu‐Hf data spanning the ...
