New monazite U-Pb age constraints on the evolution of the Paleoproterozoic Vaasa granitoid batholith, western Finland [PDF]
The Vaasa batholith, western Finland, is a large, peraluminous granitoid pluton that crystallized at 1.88–1.87 Ga during the culmination of the Svecofennian orogeny.

SHRIMP zircon U–Pb ages from coal beds across the Permian–Triassic boundary, eastern Yunnan, southwestern China [PDF]
The first SHRIMP zircon U–Pb ages from coal beds close to the end-Permian mass extinction are reported from the C1 coal seam in the Yantang Mine in Laibin Town, Xuanwei County, eastern Yunnan Province.

Direct U–Pb dating of carbonates from micron-scale femtosecond laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry images using robust regression [PDF]
Uranium–lead (U–Pb) dating of carbonates by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) spot analysis is an increasingly used method in the field of geosciences, as it brings very strong constraints over the geological history

Two pulse intrusive events of the Pliocene Tanigawa-dake granites revealed from zircon U–Pb dating
We performed zircon U–Pb dating on the Pliocene Tanigawa-dake granites (Makihata and Tanigawa bodies) and the Cretaceous Minakami quartzdiorite, Northeast Japan Arc.

Technical note: LA–ICP-MS U–Pb dating of unetched and etched apatites [PDF]
The same unetched and chemically etched apatite crystals from five rock samples were dated by the U–Pb method via laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA–ICP-MS).

Exploring the CAM18 Crystal as a Potential Reference Material for U–Pb Analysis of Zircon
In the process of in situ zircon U–Pb dating, it is an effective means to overcome the matrix effect by using a matrix-matched external reference material.
