Major and Trace Element and Sr, Nd, Hf, and Pb Isotope Compositions of the Karoo Large Igneous Province, Botswana-Zimbabwe: Lithosphere vs Mantle Plume Contribution

TL;DR: In this article, major and trace element abundances for 147 samples and Sr, Nd, Hf, and Pb isotope compositions for a 36 sample subset of basaltic lava flows, sills, and dykes from the Karoo continental flood basalt (CFB) province in Botswana, Zimbabwe, and northern South Africa are included.
Journal ArticleDOI

Karoo large igneous province: Brevity, origin, and relation to mass extinction questioned by new 40Ar/39Ar age data

TL;DR: The peak activities of continental flood basalts are currently considered as huge and brief (∼1 m.y.) events, with strong implications for geodynamics and biotic turnover as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pre-Miocene birth of the Yangtze River.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present 40Ar/39Ar ages from basalts interbedded with fluvial sediments from the lower reaches of the Yangtze together with detrital zircon U-Pb ages from sand grains within these sediments.

Age Calibration of the Fish Canyon Sanidine 40Ar/39Ar Dating Standard Using Primary K- Ar Standards

TL;DR: In this article, Steiger and Jager proposed a calibration of the Fish Canyon sanidine (FCs) standard based on four primary K/Ar standards (GA-1550, Hb3gr, NL-25, and GHC-305) on which K and Ar concentrations have been determined in different labs with independently calibrated tracers.

Age calibration of the Fish Canyon sanidine 40Ar/39Ar dating standard using primary K–Ar standards

TL;DR: In this article, Steiger and Jager proposed a calibration of the Fish Canyon sanidine (FCs) standard based on four primary K/Ar standards (GA-1550, Hb3gr, NL-25, and GHC-305) on which K and Ar concentrations have been determined in different labs with independently calibrated tracers.
