SHRIMP Zircon U-Pb Dating of Mid-Pleistocene Dacite and Discussion of Relative Problems
K-Ar and U series disequilibria methods have been applied to geochronology research of young volcanic rocks in Tengchong, China. Previous K-Ar dating methods yielded ages of 0.013 to 17.84 Ma and isochron ages of 0.13 to 2.9 Ma in this area. The U series

U-Pb SHRIMP zircon dating of Grenvillian metamorphism in Western Sierras Pampeanas (Argentina) : correlation with the Arequipa-Antofalla craton and constraints on the extent of the Precordillera Terrane [PDF]
The Sierras Pampeanas of Argentina, the largest outcrop of pre-Andean crystalline basement in southern South America, resulted from plate interactions along the proto-Andean margin of Gondwana, from as early as Mesoproterozoic to Late Paleozoic times (e ...

An algorithm for U–Pb geochronology by secondary ion mass spectrometry [PDF]
Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) is a widely used technique for in situ U–Pb geochronology of accessory minerals. Existing algorithms for SIMS data reduction and error propagation make a number of simplifying assumptions that degrade the precision

Evaluating the construction and evolution of upper crustal magma reservoirs with coupled U/Pb zircon geochronology and thermal modeling:A case study from the Mt. Capanne pluton (Elba, Italy) [PDF]
Evaluating mechanisms and rates for magma transport and emplacement in the upper crust is important in order to predict the thermal and rheological state of the crust, and understand the relationship between plutonism and volcanism. U–Pb geochronology on

Rutile Ages and Thermometry Along a Grenville Anorthosite Pathway
The Grenville Orogen, in North America, contains a belt of Proterozoic anorthosite massifs with an episodic emplacement history. These distinctive magmas reflect extensive fractional crystallization of plagioclase from a mafic magma and contain layers ...
