Ion microprobe zircon geochronology of the Uivak Gneisses: Implications for the evolution of early terrestrial crust in the North Atlantic Craton [PDF]
Ion microprobe U-Pb results for zircons from three Uivak I gneisses and one specimen of Uivak II gneiss, from the Saglek-Hebron area of Northern Labrador are reported.

Refinement of high-spatial resolution U-Pb geochronological methodologies
APPROVED Zircon [ZrSiO4] is a naturally occurring mineral commonly used in geochronological, isotope and elemental geochemical studies. It can form as an accessory phase in a wide variety of magmatic and metamorphic conditions and is remarkably stable both physically and chemically over geological timescales.

Limitotipes of Lower Sakmarian and Artinskian stages boundary in the Urals
The section Usolka and duplicating its section Dal’ny Tulkas (Bashkortostan) are proposed as the stratotypes of the Lower Sakmarian stage boundary and Lower Artinskian stage boundary of the International Stratigraphic scale.

Geochemical Disequilibrium at the Brittle‐Ductile Transition
Abstract We investigate the microtextural, microchemical, and isotopic effects of late‐stage ductile deformation in quartzite mylonites and kyanite–muscovite–quartz veins from the Raft River shear zone (Utah). Quartz microstructures record pervasive disequilibrium, expressed by unannealed features including undulatory extinction, deformation lamellae ...

Detailed geochronology from two compositionally distinct generations of dikes and sills intruded into the Alta metamorphic aureole, north‐central Utah, complement previous geochronologic studies from the Alta stock, providing information on the timing of

Abstract The Southern Rocky Mountain Trench (SRMT) is a conspicuous valley in the eastern Canadian Cordillera. It lies above a sharp change in lithospheric strength and thickness and is occupied by a normal fault thought to have last been active in the Eocene.

Abstract Robust evidence indicates that late Pleistocene glacial‐interglacial climate cycles are linked to periodic, orbitally‐forced changes in the partitioning of CO2 between the deep ocean and atmosphere. The extent to which changes in deep ocean carbon storage are related to climate on longer timescales is less well understood.

Since the advent of detrital geochronology, significant progress has been made in the study of sedimentary sources. The detrital zircon U–Pb age spectrum, especially when combined with zircon Hf isotopes, provides a powerful tool for determining the ...

U-Pb geochronology of the South Mountain Batholith, Nova Scotia
The South Mountain Batholith (SMB) is a composite peraluminous intrusion in southwestern Nova Scotia and the largest granitoid body in the Appalachian Orogen. The batholith comprises early stage biotite-granodiorite to biotite-monzogranite and a later stage of leucomonzogranite to leucogranite plutons that are associated with numerous sub-economic to ...
