Location, Location, Location: Monazite Behaviour During UHT Metamorphism and Melt Crystallization
ABSTRACT Monazite is a robust mineral for recording the suprasolidus evolution of migmatites and granulites. However, monazite commonly has diverse compositions and yields variable dates in a single sample; understanding the controls on monazite behaviour and composition during partial melting and melt crystallization are not always straightforward ...

ABSTRACT The Carboniferous‐Permian Tarija basin of southern Bolivia evolved under major tectonic and climatic influence. The timing of transition from glacially influenced to arid conditions, after the Gondwanide tectonic event, has been based mainly on palynological correlations.

An archean suture zone in the Tobacco Root Mountains? (1984) Evolution of Archean Continental Crust, SW Montana (1985) [PDF]
The Lake Plateau area of the Beartooth Mountains, Montana were mapped and geochemically sampled. The allochthonous nature of the Stillwater Complex was interpreted as a Cordilleran-style continental margin.

P‐T‐t‐d Evolution of Low‐Grade Metamorphic Xenotime, Eastern Alps (Austria)
ABSTRACT In situ LA‐ICP‐MS U‐Pb dating of xenotime was used to establish the age of low‐grade metamorphism in Permian metasediments of the Austroalpine Unit (Eastern Alps, Austria). Complexly zoned xenotime in chloritoid‐bearing metasedimentary samples possesses distinct MREE‐rich domains. In the eastern sample, this domain yielded a date of c. 135 Ma,

Abstract We present a decadal‐scale paleomagnetic analysis of a stalagmite collected from Shuixi Cave, southwest China, spanning 89−123 ka. Our findings include: (a) Magnetite is the dominant magnetic mineral, and paleomagnetic directions can be obtained via demagnetization; (b) Magnetic scanning at 0.1‐mm resolution captures key magnetic features ...

Metamorphism and plutonism in the Quetico Belt, Superior Province, N.W. Ontario [PDF]
The Quetico Belt lies between the metavolcanic Wawa-Shebandowan and Wabigoon Belts. It consists of marginal metasedimentary rocks and central pelitic, gneissic and plutonic rocks.

Isothermal Thermoluminescence Dating of Coral Reef Calcite: Implications for Sea‐Level Change
Abstract Reconstructing past sea‐level changes is critical in Quaternary science. On remote oceanic reefs, aragonite‐to‐calcite alteration occurs during subaerial exposure, directly recording the timing of sea‐level fall. U–Th dating of coral calcite is challenging due to open‐system issues.
