Introduction: Many lunar samples record some degree of disturbance to their U-Pb isotopic systematics [e.g., 1,2]. This disturbance may be reflected in Pb-Pb, U-Pb, U-Pb, or concordia ages that are discordant among the U-Pb systems as well as with more robust Sm-Nd and Rb-Sr ages. Both mare basalt 10017 and norite 78238 fail to yield consistent geochronologic results among their Pb-Pb, U-Pb, an...

U-Pb ages obtained on zircons from the investigated migmatites place new constraints on the evolution of the crustal rocks in the Takab area. SHRIMP U-Pb dating of inherited zircon in the melanosome parts of mafic migmatites from the Takab complex gives a discordant age with an upper intercept of 2961±72 Ma (MSWD=0.5) and a lower intercept of 24.2±5.7 Ma (MSWD=1.7). In the concordia diagram, th...

The Itapuranga alkali granite and Uruana quartz syenite are large K-rich EW-elongated intrusions, in the central part of the Neoproterozoic Brasília Belt, central Brazil. They are associated with Pireneus lineaments, which cut the regional NNW-SSE structures of the southern part of the belt. SHRIMP and conventional U-Pb data for the Itapuranga and Uruana intrusions indicate crystallization ages...

Abstract A detailed geochronological study was conducted on zircons from a diorite sample of the Posets pluton (Axial Zone, Pyrenees). The extracted igneous constrain emplacement to 302 ± 2 Ma and 301 3 Ma, by means U–Pb sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe (SHRIMP) laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) analyses, respectively. Considering syn- late-tectonic...

Cilj istraživanja bio je procijeniti učestalost osteoporoze u oboljelih od Parkinsonove bolesti (PB). Istraživanje je obuhvatilo 26 bolesnika,17 žena i 9 muškaraca oboljelih od PB, bez znatnijeg komorbiditeta. Kliničkim pregledom utvrđena je starost, trajanje PB, način liječenja, komorbiditet, životne navike, ishrana i tjelesna aktivnost. Stadij PB i stupanj aktivnosti u svakodnevnom životu pro...

The chemistry and isotope chemistry of natural materials is highly indicative of provenance and process throughout geological history. Our studies range in time from the earliest solar system through to processes that are actively taking place today, and in scope from planetary systems to individual molecules. Active areas of research centre on planetary studies, metamorphic and igneous geochem...

The results of our combined U–Pb, Rb–Sr, and Sm–Nd isotope study of mare basalt 10017 contribute to the understanding of the petrogenetic processes involved in the origin of geochemical diversity in lunar mare basalt sources, as well as the U–Pb isotope systematics of the Moon. The Rb–Sr, Sm–Nd, and U–Pb isotope systems yield concordant crystallization ages of 3.633 ± 0.057 Ga, 3.678 ± 0.069 Ga...
