U-Pn geochronology of deformed metagranites in central Sutherland, Scotland: evidence for widespread late Silurian metamorphism and ductile deformation of the Moine Supergroup during the Caledonian orogeny [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Within the Caledonides of central Sutherland, Scotland, the Neoproterozoic metasedimentary rocks of the Moine Supergroup record NW-directed D2 ductile thrusting and nappe assembly, accompanied by widespread tight-to-isoclinal folding and amphibolite ...

A UNIQUE FINDING OF ZIRCON INTO BADDELEYITE TRANSFORMATION (THE ICHETJU ORE OCCURRENCE, THE MIDDLE TIMAN)

open access: yesИзвестия высших учебных заведений: Геология и разведка, 2018
Findings of the growth relationships between baddeleyite and zircon are rare, due to significant differences in the formation conditions of the minerals.

Detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology and geochemistry of the Riachuelos and Palma Sola beach sediments, Veracruz State, Gulf of Mexico: a new insight on palaeoenvironment

open access: yesJournal of Palaeogeography, 2020
Zircons are abundant in the beach sediments. In this study, surface microtexture, mineralogy, bulk sediment geochemistry, trace element composition and U–Pb isotopic geochronology of detrital zircons collected from the Riachuelos and Palma Sola beach ...

The Medicine Hat Block and the Early Paleoproterozoic Assembly of Western Laurentia

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
The accretion of the Wyoming, Hearne, and Superior Provinces to form the Archean core of western Laurentia occurred rapidly in the Paleoproterozoic. Missing from Hoffman’s (1988) original rapid aggregation model was the Medicine Hat block (MHB).

Geologic history of Martian regolith breccia Northwest Africa 7034: Evidence for hydrothermal activity and lithologic diversity in the Martian crust [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The timing and mode of deposition for Martian regolith breccia Northwest Africa (NWA) 7034 were determined by combining petrography, shape analysis, and thermochronology.

Microtexture and U–Pb geochronology of detrital zircon grains in the Chachalacas beach, Veracruz State, Gulf of Mexico

open access: yesGeological Journal, 2020
Microtextures, trace element concentrations, and U–Pb geochronology of detrital zircon grains recovered from the Chachalacas beach in the western Gulf of Mexico were investigated to infer palaeoenvironmental conditions.

Experimental evidence for the preservation of U-Pb isotope ratios in mantle-recycled crustal zircon grains

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Zircon of crustal origin found in mantle-derived rocks is of great interest because of the information it may provide about crust recycling and mantle dynamics.

Significant Zr isotope variations in single zircon grains recording magma evolution history

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance Zircon, a common accessory mineral in crustal rocks, records plentiful and critical information on the Earth’s history. The isotopes of its major component, Zr, could be another powerful but unexplored tracer.
