In situ Lusingle bondHf geochronology offers the potential for direct dating of garnet within
petrographic context. However, the method requires matrix-matched standards to calibrate …

Understanding the provenance of megaliths used in the Neolithic stone circle at
Stonehenge, southern England, gives insight into the culture and connectivity of prehistoric …

Apatite has the ability to fingerprint its geological environment of formation due to the fact
that it can incorporate a variety of trace elements. As such, there is a growing interest in …

Abstract Combined apatite Lu–Hf, U–Pb, and fission track (AFT) triple dating affords the
opportunity to investigate the~ 60 and 730° C thermal history of a study area. Here, we apply …

In mafic systems where primary mineral assemblages have witnessed moderate-to high-
temperature hydrous overprinting and deformation, little is known about the retentivity of the …

Allanite is a common REE-rich accessory mineral found in various igneous and
metamorphic rocks, and can record a variety of geological processes. Therefore, allanite …

Inductively coupled plasma–tandem mass spectrometry (ICP–MS/MS) has rapidly
established itself as a method for interference-free trace-element and isotope ratio analyses …

Detrital minerals within Proterozoic basins are commonly an extant record of now-destroyed
crust and provide valuable constraints on ancient paleogeography and tectonic processes …

Precambrian banded iron formations (BIFs) preserve unique records of the oxygenation of
Earth's oceans but have proven challenging to date robustly. U− Pb dating of authigenic …

Precambrian iron oxide copper-gold (IOCG) systems have commonly experienced multiple
mineralising and tectonothermal events and identifying their timing and geodynamic …
