µID-TIMS: spatially resolved high-precision U–Pb zircon geochronology [PDF]
We present a novel methodology for spatially resolved high-precision U–Pb geochronology of individual growth domains in complex zircon. Our approach utilizes a multi-ion-species (Xe+/Ar+) plasma focused ion beam (PFIB)–femtosecond (fs) laser system ...

Timing of diagenesis and very low-grade metamorphism in the eastern sector of the Sierra de Cameros (Iberian Range, Spain): a U–Pb SHRIMP study on monazite [PDF]
The Sierra de Cameros is an intracontinental orogen and represents the north-western part of the Iberian Range in Northern Spain. It comprises a thick sequence of syn-rift continental sediments (mainly sandstones and carbonates) deposited during ...

Variscan sourcing of Westphalian (Pennsylvanian) sandstones in the Canobie Coalfield, UK [PDF]
The zircon age spectrum in a sample from the Canonbie Bridge Sandstone Formation (Asturian) of southern Scotland contains two main peaks. One is Early Carboniferous in age (348– 318 Ma), and corresponds to the age of igneous activity during the ...

Multianalytical provenance analysis of Eastern Ross Sea LGM till sediments (Antarctica): Petrography, geochronology, and thermochronology detrital data [PDF]
In order to reveal provenance of detrital sediments supplied by West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS), 19 glaciomarine cores of Last Glacial Maximum age were analyzed from Eastern Ross Sea and Sulzberger Bay.

Apatite is a widespread U-bearing mineral in igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks. U-Pb geochronology of apatite can provide significant information for constraining magmatic evolution processes and tracing provenance.

Recent application of zircon U-Pb geochronology has contributed to deciphering the evolution of caldera systems worldwide. However, in the Tohoku region, NE Japan, this is not the case, although it is well studied as a typical island arc subduction ...

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 ...

Carbonates from Santos Basin revealed U–Pb ages correlated with basalt ages (A), suggesting that they were formed during magmatic events. These events placed hot CO2 in the reservoir, which, when mixed with carbonate‐rich cold water (B), led to thermal convection, enabling the formation of the U contained in the carbonates.

U redox state tracked in mineralized hydrothermal carbonate with implications for U-Pb geochronology
U-Pb carbonate geochronology can directly constrain the timing and rates of important geological processes. However, the mechanisms and controls on U incorporation, distribution, and retention in carbonate minerals remain unclear, limiting geological ...

Zircon micro-inclusions as an obstacle for in situ garnet U–Pb geochronology: an example from the As Sifah eclogite locality, Oman [PDF]
Garnet is commonly used to calculate pressure (P)–temperature (T) histories of metamorphic rocks, as well as to monitor changes in bulk-rock composition (X) and deformation (d).
