Thermoluminescence of ZrSiO 4 ( zircon ) : A new dating method ?
Zircon appears to be a suitable medium for thermoluminescence (TL) dating of sediments from the Quaternary. TL of zircon results predominantly from internal irradiation, due to the relatively high internal concentrations of a-emitting U and Th. The internal dose predominates over the external one that is caused by the surrounding geological layers and cosmic rays. Measurement of the TL buildup ...
متن کاملThe contorted New England Orogen (eastern Australia): New evidence from UPb geochronology of early Permian granitoids
[1] A series of sharp bends (oroclines) are recognized in the Paleozoic to early Mesozoic New England Orogen of eastern Australia. The exact geometry and origin of these bends is obscured by voluminous magmatism and is still debated. Here we present zircon U-Pb ages that confirm the lateral continuation of early Permian (296–288 Ma) granitoids and shed new light on the oroclinal structure. Orog...
متن کاملPre-Variscan evolution of the Western Tatra Mountains: new insights from U-Pb zircon dating.
In situ LA-MC-ICP-MS U-Pb zircon geochronology combined with cathodoluminescence imaging were carried out to determine protolith and metamorphic ages of orthogneisses from the Western Tatra Mountains (Central Western Carpathians). The metamorphic complex is subdivided into two units (the Lower Unit and the Upper Unit). Orthogneisses of the Lower Unit are mostly banded, fine- to medium-grained r...
متن کاملDating of Precambrian Metasedimentary Rocks and Timing of their Metamorphism in the Soursat Metamorphic Complex (NW IRAN): Using LA–ICP-MS, U–Pb Dating of Zircon and Monazite
Soursat Metamorphic Complex (SMC) in west of Takab city is one of the polyphase metamorphic terrenes in northern Sanandaj-Sirjan metamorphic belt of Iran. The SMC composed mainly of metasedimentary rocks associated with granitic intrusions. Based on metamorphic rocks, two metamorphic phases could be separate in the complex. M1 is representative of regional metamorphisms which varies from greens...
متن کاملLaacher See revisited: High-spatial-resolution zircon dating indicates rapid formation of a zoned magma chamber
High-spatial-resolution (230Th)/(238U) disequilibrium dating reveals rapid zircon crystallization prior to the 12,900 yr B.P. Laacher See (Germany) phonolite eruption. Zircons from Lower Laacher See tephra (LLST) and syenitic subvolcanic nodules share REE and low U/Th characteristics and define an isochron age of 17.1 1.3 ka (1 ). Zircons also show higher initial (Th)/(Th)0 and oxygen isotopic ...
