Systematics in the Pb^(208)-Th^(232), Pb^(207)-U^(235), and Pb^(206)-U^(238) Systems [PDF]
In a study of cogenetic zircons it was found that the measured Pb^(208)/Th^(232) and Pb^(207)/U^(235) ratios formed a linear array in the corresponding coupled Pb-U-Th evolution diagram, which has an upper intersection on the concordia curve at the same ...

A Triassic to Cretaceous Sundaland–Pacific subduction margin in West Sarawak, Borneo [PDF]
Metamorphic rocks in West Sarawak are poorly exposed and studied. They were previously assumed to be pre-Carboniferous basement but had never been dated. New 40Ar/39Ar ages from white mica in quartz-mica schists reveal metamorphism between c.

U‐Pb dating of a remagnetized Paleozoic limestone [PDF]
The Upper Ordovician Trenton Group of New York State is one of a number of Appalachian limestones which yields paleomagnetic poles suggesting disturbance in the late Paleozoic. Calcite fractions dissolved from samples of the Trenton Limestone define a 238U‐206Pb age of 454±8 Ma (MSWD=12.8) in excellent agreement with 40Ar−39 Ar and U‐Pb ages for the ...

A global zircon U–Th–Pb geochronological database [PDF]
Since the start of the 21st century, the widespread application of ion probes has promoted the mass output of high-precision and high-accuracy U–Th–Pb geochronological data.

Late Precambrian U-Pb titanite age for peak regional metamorphism and deformation (Knoydartian orogeny) in the western Moine, Scotland [PDF]
There has been controversy over the number and timing of orogenies in the Precambrian Moine block in the Scottish Caledonides since the earliest radiometric dating in the 1960s. This work challenges a recent hypothesis, that this sector of the Laurentian

A revised Ordovician age for the Miranda do Douro orthogneiss, Portugal. Zircon U-Pb ion-microprobe and LA-ICPMS dating [PDF]
The Miranda do Douro orthogneiss was believed to be the oldest magmatic rock of the Central Iberian Zone, on the base of a U-Pb discordia upper intercept of 618 ± 9 Ma.

Emerging evidence suggests that U-Pb and Lu-Hf ages of sedimentary apatite group minerals are often younger than their biostratigraphic ages. However, U-Pb dating of exquisitely preserved carbonate fluorapatite (CFA) is rare.

In situ U–Pb dating of 4 billion-year-old carbonates in the martian meteorite Allan Hills 84001 [PDF]
In situ carbonate U–Pb dating studies have proliferated dramatically in recent years. Almost all these studies have targeted relatively young terrestrial calcite up to Carboniferous in age.
