The present sub-permil precision of single zircon chemical abrasion, isotope-dilution, thermal ionisation mass spectrometry (CA-ID-TIMS) U Pb dates often reveals age dispersions that are outside of analytical uncertainty.

U–Pb zircon ages from the Spontang Ophiolite, Ladakh Himalaya
The Spontang Ophiolite in the Ladakh Himalaya consist of a thrust sheet of upper mantle and oceanic crustal rocks obducted onto the northern passive continental margin of India during the late Cretaceous. Precise isotopic ages of Himalayan ophiolites are presently unavailable. U–Pb dating of zircons from a dioritic segregation in the high-level gabbros

Accurate and precise dating of terrestrial impact craters is a critical requirement for correlating impacts with events such as mass extinctions. A number of isotopic systems have been applied to impact chronology but it is important to understand what ...

The effect of low-temperature annealing on discordance of U–Pb zircon ages [PDF]
AbstractDiscordant U–Pb data of zircon are commonly attributed to Pb loss from domains with variable degree of radiation damage that resulted from α-decay of U and Th, which often complicates the correct age interpretation of the sample. Here we present U–Pb zircon data from 23 samples of ca.

Crustal evolution of the western part of the Archean Gavião Block, São Francisco Craton, based on U-Pb, Sm-Nd and Rb-Sr evidence [PDF]
The western part of the Gavião Block (São Francisco Craton) is one of the oldest fragments of the South American Platform. It comprises the Riacho de Santana Gneissic Migmatitic complex, the Santa Isabel complex and the Riacho de Santana greenstone belt.

High-Precision U-Pb Zircon Age Calibration of the Global Carboniferous Time Scale and Milankovitch Band Cyclicity in the Donets Basin, Eastern Ukraine [PDF]
High-precision ID-TIMS U-Pb zircon ages for 12 interstratified tuffs and tonsteins are used to radiometrically calibrate the detailed lithostratigraphic, cyclostratigraphic, and biostratigraphic framework of the Carboniferous Donets Basin of eastern ...

In situ U-Pb Dating of Calcite from the South China Antimony Metallogenic Belt
Summary: Accurately determining the age of hydrothermal ore deposits is difficult, because of lack of suitable mineral chronometers and techniques. Here we present the first LA-MC-ICPMS U-Pb age of carbonates from hydrothermal Sb deposits.

Abstract Precise U–Pb ages, determined with double spike ( 202 Pb– 205 Pb) thermal ionization m1ass spectrometry, are reported for angrites Angra dos Reis (AdoR), Lewis Cliff 86010 (LEW), and D’Orbigny. Nineteen of 23 acid-washed pyroxene fractions from these meteorites and whole rock fractions from D’Orbigny contain between 0.5 and 1.3 pg of total ...

Spatial and glacial‐interglacial variations in provenance of the Chinese Loess Plateau
The Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) covers an extensive area over 440,000 km2and provides an unprecedented terrestrial record of Neogene climate. However, it is still unclear whether the provenance of these loess deposits is uniform or contains spatial and ...
