Characterization of coesite‐bearing impact melt glass from the Hapcheon crater, Korea: Trimodal phase architecture, shock metamorphism, and implications for 40Ar/39Ar geochronology

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We present the first micrometer‐scale, phase‐resolved compositional characterization of impact melt glass from the Hapcheon crater (~1.4 km apparent diameter), the first confirmed impact structure on the Korean Peninsula, integrating EPMA‐WDS (5 μm spot), confocal Raman spectroscopy (<1 μm spot), XRD, and 40Ar/39Ar step‐heating geochronology ...

Monazite and Cassiterite Dating and Pyrite S Isotopes of the Helukou Tungsten-Tin Polymetallic Deposit of the Guposhan Ore District, Nanling Range: Implications for Ore Genesis

open access: yesGeosciences
The Guposh an orefield within the western segment of the Nanling Range hosts a globally significant tungsten and tin metallogenic province whose formation is tied to the intense Middle Jurassic granitic magmatism. Nonetheless, critical ambiguities remain

Impact and Correction of Analytical Positioning on Accuracy of Zircon U-Pb Dating by SIMS

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2020
Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) is one of the most important analytical tools for geochronology, especially for zircon U-Pb dating. Due to its advantages in spatial resolution and analytical precision, SIMS is the preferred option for multi-spot ...

Diagenetic controls on porosity evolution and pore type organisation in microporous carbonate rocks: Evidence for mesogenetic porosity formation

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microporous carbonate rocks typically record complex diagenetic histories driven by microbial activity and fluid interactions within multiple diagenetic environments. The relative roles of meteoric and burial diagenetic processes in pore evolution remain debated, particularly within Cretaceous carbonate systems of the Middle East, as does the ...

Evidence for the continental origin of Pliocene deposits in the central Baja California peninsula, Mexico, and implications for controls on biodiversity

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Previous studies have documented genetic divergence within the last few million years between northern and southern populations of terrestrial plants and animals along the Baja California peninsula, with many studies hypothesising that the divergence is due to an ancient seaway that crossed the central peninsula and created a physical barrier ...

Detrital zircon geochronology of Neoproterozoic to Middle Cambrian miogeoclinal and platformal strata: Northwest Sonora, Mexico [PDF]

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional, 2000
Eighty-five detrital zircon grains from Mesoproterozoic and/or Neoproterozoic to Middle Cambrian sedimentary strata in northwest Sonora, Mexico, have been analyzed to determine source terranes and provide limiting depositional ages of the units.

Rapid Exhumation of Earth's Youngest Exposed Granites Driven by Subduction of an Oceanic Arc

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2019
Exhumation of plutonic systems is driven by a range of mechanisms including isostatic, tectonic, and erosional processes. Variable rates of plutonic exhumation in active subduction systems may be driven by idiosyncrasies of regional geology or by first ...

U–Th whole rock data and high spatial resolution U–Th disequilibrium and U–Pb zircon ages of Mt. Erciyes and Mt. Hasan Quaternary stratovolcanic complexes (Central Anatolia)

open access: yesData in Brief, 2020
Thirty-eight lava and pyroclastic samples were collected from Mt. Erciyes and Mt. Hasan, the two largest stratovolcanic complexes of the Central Anatolian Volcanic Province in Turkey.

Turning Trash Into Treasure: Extracting Meaning From Discordant Data via a Dedicated Application

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Zircon U–Pb geochronology is a vital tool for dating geological events, but interpreting discordant zircon ages—often the result of Pb loss due to fluid‐rock interactions—remains challenging.
