Use and abuse of detrital zircon U-Pb geochronology—A case from the Río Orinoco delta, eastern Venezuela

open access: yesGeology, 2018
Advancements in mass spectrometry methods over the past two decades have allowed for rapid measurement of (U-Th)/Pb isotopes for geochronologic applications, a tool that has deeply influenced the way sediment provenance and paleo-tectonic reconstructions

Technical note: Investigation into the relationship between zircon structural damage and Pb mobility using chemical abrasion, SIMS, Raman spectroscopy, and atom probe tomography [PDF]

open access: yesGeochronology
Chemical abrasion (CA), a two-step process of annealing and partial dissolution, is routinely applied to zircon grains prior to U–Pb geochronology to dissolve portions of the grains affected by Pb loss prior to analysis.

Refinement of high-spatial resolution U-Pb geochronological methodologies

open access: yes, 2021
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

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2015
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.

Timing of Dike and Sill Emplacement in the Inner Aureole of the Alta Stock, Utah Determined by Zircon and Monazite Petrochronology

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
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

Permian fluid circulation and deformation along a crustal-scale shear zone in the Montagne Noire gneiss dome (southern French Massif Central)

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
U-Th-Pb LA-ICPMS (Laser Ablation − Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry) has the power to elucidate the timing of metamorphism, deformation, migmatization, and plutonism.

A database of detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology and Hf isotopes from the Songpan–Ganzi and Western Qinling terranes

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal
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

open access: yes, 2018
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 ...

Evolution of the Transantarctic Basin (Southern Gondwana): Insights From Quantitative Sandstone Petrography

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
The deposition of the sandstone sedimentary succession of the Beacon Supergroup lasted more than 200 Myr (Devonian to Early Jurassic) in Victoria Land and nearby territories in the so‐called Transantarctic Basin, recording crucial events in the history of the Earth.
