The development of in situ laser ablation Lu–Hf geochronology of apatite, xenotime and garnet has opened avenues to quickly and directly date geological processes. We …
The circum-North Atlantic region archives three major late-Mesoproterozoic to Neoproterozoic tectonic episodes, the Grenville–Sveconorwegian and Renlandian …
We report experimental data for Y, La, Lu and Hf diffusion in garnet, in which diffusant concentrations and silica activity have been systematically varied. Experiments were …
Correlations across the once-contiguous North Atlantic region remain challenging, particularly for pre-Caledonian packages. Here, we present new zircon U-Pb and Hf isotope …
Zircon Hf evolutionary patterns are powerful tools to investiage magma petrogenesis and crustal evolution. The 176 Hf/177 Hf isotopic signature of a rock is particularly informative …
Granitoid batholiths dominated by felsic to intermediate compositions are commonly associated with mafic plutons and enclaves; however, the genetic relationship between the …
Moine metasedimentary rocks of northern Scotland are characterized by arcuate map patterns of mineral lineations that swing progressively clockwise from orogen-perpendicular …

Abstract The Yili Block is one of the major Precambrian microcontinents of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB). Detrital zircon U-Pb ages and Hf isotopic data of the Meso …
The Northern Highlands Terrane of Scotland hosts several thrust nappes that were deformed and metamorphosed during the Silurian Scandian orogeny. Quantitative …
