Resolving Micrometre‐Scale Zircon Growth in Silicic Systems by 7 μm LA‐MC‐ICP‐MS U‐Pb Dating: Linking Petrology and Geochronology in Silicic Volcanic and Granitic Rocks from Victoria, Australia

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points 7 μm spot‐diameter LA‐MC‐ICP‐MS analyses yield accurate zircon U‐Pb ages. 1013 Ω amplifier resistors improve low‐signal Pb measurements. Saturn correction protocols minimise down‐hole fractionation effects. We present a systematic evaluation of high spatial‐resolution zircon U‐Pb dating using a Thermo Scientific Neoma multi‐collector ICP‐MS ...

First isotope analysis and new radiocarbon dating of Trypillia (Tripolye) farmers from Verteba Cave, Bilche Zolote, Ukraine

open access: yesDocumenta Praehistorica, 2017
This paper presents an analysis of human and animal remains from Verteba cave, near Bilche Zolote, western Ukraine. This study was prompted by a paucity of direct dates on this material and the need to contextualise these remains in relation both to the

Radiogenic Tracers

open access: yes, 2015
Isotopes can be characterized to be stable, cosmogenic, radioactive, or radiogenic. Stable isotopes do not change their relative abundance in the environment as long as no isotopes are added or extracted from the system.

Elemental composition and radiogenic isotopes of North African soils to characterize Saharan and Sahelian dust sources

open access: yes, 2022
Fifty-nine bulk soil samples were from a collection known as the “Mainz Sandbank”, comprising samples from across the Sahara-Sahel region collected on multiple field trips since 1970.

Variable Sr Diffusion and Implications for Rb–Sr Biotite Geochronology

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rubidium–strontium (Rb–Sr) system has a long pedigree as a geochronological tool that relies on the application of an isochron approach. In particular, biotite contains strongly radiogenic Rb–Sr isotopes, and thus can yield meaningful crystallisation or cooling ages via this approach. However, the response of the Rb–Sr system in biotite to

Thorium determination in seawater by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry: Method development and oceanographic applications

open access: yesTalanta Open
Thorium isotopes in the ocean (including radiogenic isotopes and terrigenous-derived 232Th) serve as key tracers for studying land-derived material transport. While high-sensitivity and high-resolution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS)

Impact‐diagnostic criteria for use in confirming a meteorite impact origin of terrestrial geological structures: Recommendations by the Impact Cratering Committee of the Meteoritical Society

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The framework of the Impact Cratering Committee (ICC) of the Meteoritical Society was approved in 2020, with the first committee members appointed in 2023. The ICC has a mandate to (1) approve, maintain, and update a database of confirmed terrestrial meteorite impact structures, (2) define and regularly update the criteria used for ...

Radiogenic Strontium‐ and Uranium‐Isotope Tracers of Water‐Rock Interactions and Hydrothermal Flow in the Upper Geyser Basin, Yellowstone Plateau Volcanic Field, USA

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Natural radiogenic isotopes (primarily 87Sr/86Sr) from hot springs in the Upper Geyser Basin of the Yellowstone Plateau volcanic field and associated rocks were used to evaluate groundwater flow patterns, water‐rock reactions, and the extent of mixing ...

Thermal histories of El Médano 300 (EM 300) and Northwest Africa 8155 (NWA 8155): Implications for the diversity of IAB‐ungrouped iron meteorites and their parent bodies

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This study provides the first petrographic, crystallographic, and chemical comparison between El Médano 300 (EM 300) and Northwest Africa 8155 (NWA 8155), two particular IAB‐ungrouped iron meteorites. Both contain exceptionally large graphite nodules and “flowers”, providing unique insights into carbon behavior in metallic melts and cooling ...

Radiogenic isotope investigation of the St‐Robert H5 fall [PDF]

open access: yesMeteoritics & Planetary Science, 2004
Abstract— The St‐Robert H5 chondrite yields a mineral/whole‐rock Pb‐Pb age of 4565 ± 23 Ma (2σ) comparable to the accepted age of most chondrites. The regression of chondrule data give a similar age of 4566 ± 7 Ma (2σ). These results imply that no major perturbation affected the Pb‐Pb systematics of this meteorite's parent body within the first few ...
