Electrostatic force: A novel method for mounting small zircon grains to expose the maximum outer surface

open access: yesSolid Earth Sciences, 2020
Mirco-beam isotopic analyses of zircon have increased dramatically with applications for providing multi-isotopic information. As small as 2–5 μm spot size could be used by secondary ion mass spectrometry for in-situ isotope analysis of zircon with high ...

U–Pb zircon ages of the host rocks of the Juomasuo Au–Co–Cu deposit, northeastern Finland [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2017
The Salittu Formation is one of the few metavolcanic successions in the U-Pb zircon single grain dating using the LA-MC-ICP-MS technique was utilized to determine the age of the host rocks of the Juomasuo Au-Co-Cu deposit located in the late Archean ...

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 ...

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.

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).

Early Cambrian U-Pb zircon age and Hf-isotope data from the Guasayán pluton, Sierras Pampeanas, Argentina: implications for the northwestern boundary of the Pampean arc [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
An Early Cambrian pluton, known as the Guasayán pluton, has been identified in the central area of Sierra de Guasayán, northwestern Argentina. A U?Pb zircon Concordia age of 533 ± 4 Ma was obtained by LA-MC-ICP-MS and represents the first report of ...

Paramagnetic hole centres in natural zircon and zircon colouration

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Mineralogy, 2012
Paramagnetic defect centres and their relation to variable types of colouration were studied for eleven natural zircon crystals from three localities in North Carolina (USA), Massif Central (France), and Ural Mountains (Russia) using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and optical absorption spectroscopy.
