Detrital 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 کاملMetamorphic replacement of mineral inclusions in detrital zircon from Jack Hills , Australia : Implications for the Hadean Earth
We appreciate that Rasmussen et al. (2011) have characterized a large number of inclusions in Jack Hills (Australia) detrital zircons, but we fi nd two signifi cant fl aws in their paper: one of scholarship and one of omission. With regard to the fi rst, their paper implies discovery of reset isotopic systems in phosphate inclusions in Jack Hills zircons. This was previously discussed by Caro e...
متن کاملMineral inclusions in pyrope crystals from Garnet Ridge, Arizona, USA: implications for processes in the upper mantle
Mineral inclusions in pyrope crystals from Garnet Ridge in the Navajo Volcanic Field on the Colorado Plateau are investigated in this study with emphasis on the oxide minerals. Each pyrope crystal is roughly uniform in composition except for diusion halos surrounding some inclusions. The pyrope crystals have near constant Ca:Fe:Mg ratios, 0.3 to 5.7 wt% Cr2O3, and 20 to 220 ppm H2O. Thermobaro...
متن کاملGarnet: A Rock-Forming Mineral Petrochronometer
Garnet could be the ultimate petrochronometer. Not only can you date it directly (with an accuracy and precision that may surprise some), but it is also a common rock-forming and porphyroblast-forming mineral, with wide ranging—yet thermodynamically well understood— solid solution that provides direct and quantitative petrologic context. While accessory phase petrochronology is based largely up...
متن کاملFluid inclusions and mineral chemistry of some detrital heavy minerals of alluvium sediments from Meluli- Namuhuca area, Mozambique
Geochemistry and fluid inclusions studies were carried out on garnet and beryl from Quaternary alluvium deposits of Meluli-Namuhuca area, Mozambique. Garnet occurs as euhedral large crystals and is commonly brownish red, with a moderate brown hue in transmitted light. Apatite and ilmenite are the common inclusions. Geochemically, garnet is characterized by nearly homogenous chemical composition...
