Detrital Zircon Geochronology by Laser-ablation Multicollector Icpms at the Arizona Laserchron Center
Detrital zircon geochronology is rapidly evolving into a very powerful tool for determining the provenance and maximum depositional age of clastic strata. This rapid evolution is being driven by the increased availability of ion probes and laser ablation ICP mass spectrometers, which are able to generate age determinations rapidly, at moderate to low cost, and of sufficient accuracy for most ap...
متن کاملThermal Evolution and Provenance Revealed through Detrital Zircon Fission Track Dating of the Upper Cretaceous Shumagin Formation, Nagai Island, Alaska
Wrangellia Superterrane. The Paleozoic to Mesozoic Wrangellia superterrane (Insular terrane) consists of intraoceanic volcanic assemblages and basement rocks of the Peninsular, Wrangellia, and Alexander terranes (Plafker et al, 1994). The magmatic-arc assemblages of the Peninsular terrane appear to have been built upon the Wrangellia composite terrane prior to the midCretaceous and include: 1) ...
متن کاملControls on erosion intensity in the Yangtze River basin tracked by U–Pb detrital zircon dating
a r t i c l e i n f o The Yangtze River dominates the drainage of eastern Asia, yet the processes that control erosion within the basin are obscure, making the interpretation of the detritus record difficult. In this study we used U–Pb dating of zircon grains from the modern main stream and major tributaries to identify the sources of sediment production, based on the diversity of zircon ages a...
متن کاملDetrital zircon provenance and Ordovician terrane amalgamation,
19 Detrital-zircon analysis of sandstones interbedded with ca 464 Ma ignimbrites in 20 the lower Mweelrea Formation of the South Mayo Trough, western Ireland, 21 suggests Ordovician source-rock provenance that corresponds to two distinct 22 volcanic-arc phases on the Laurentian margin. East-derived sandstones contain a 23 suite of zircons with a mean age of ca 487 Ma that suggests derivation fr...
متن کاملDETRITAL ZIRCON U/Pb AGE DETERMINATION: UNDERSTANDING THE PROVENANCE OF THE LATE- CRETACEOUS SHUMAGIN FORMATION, ALASKA
The Chugach-Prince William (CPW) terrane is an Upper Cretaceous to Eocene accretionary complex exposed for ~2200 km in southern Alaska, extending from Baranof Island in the east to Sanak Island in the west. One of the thickest subduction-related accretionary complexes in the world, the CPW terrane is composed of deep-water flysch and associated volcanic rocks and is intruded by near-trench plut...
