Journal ArticleDOI

Zircon Behaviour and the Thermal Histories of Mountain Chains

TL;DR: Using the U-Pb geochronology of zircon, the authors can understand the growth and collapse of mountain chains, both recent and ancient, and provide information on the history of cooling from high temperatures, including the timing and rates of exhumation of the deep roots of the mountain chains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linking growth episodes of zircon and metamorphic textures to zircon chemistry: an example from the ultrahigh-temperature granulites of Rogaland (SW Norway)

TL;DR: In-situ U-Th-Pb analyses by ion-microprobe on zircon in intact textural relationships are combined with backscatter and cathodoluminescence analysis and trace element analyses to provide evidence for growth episodes as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for a 2 Ga subduction zone: Eclogites in the Usagaran belt of Tanzania

TL;DR: In this article, a 35 km-long belt of eclogite-facies rocks in central Tanzania yields a Paleoproterozoic age of 2 Ga for the time of metamorphism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyphase zircon in ultrahigh‐temperature granulites (Rogaland, SW Norway): constraints for Pb diffusion in zircon

TL;DR: In this article, the ages of composite zircon segments from the aureole of the Rogaland anorthosite-norite intrusive complex were characterized using electron backscattered electron and cathodoluminescence images plus trace element analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

U-Pb dating of metamorphic minerals: Pan-African metamorphism and prolonged slow cooling of high pressure granulites in Tanzania, East Africa

TL;DR: U-Pb monazite and zircon ages reveal that the high pressure granulites from eastern Tanzania were metamorphosed during a Pan-African tectonothermal episode, and indicate that peak metamorphic conditions were diachronous in different granulite domains.
