New insights into thermal history from single grain 40Ar/39Ar analysis of biotite
TL;DR: In this paper, single grains of biotite extracted from two hand samples of two granitoid rocks from the Red Lake greenstone belt of northwestern Ontario were examined using a high-sensitivity 40Ar/39Ar laser dating system for variations in age.

Late Pleistocene Alberca de Guadalupe maar volcano (Zacapu basin, Michoacán): Stratigraphy, tectonic setting, and paleo-hydrogeological environment
TL;DR: The Alberca de Guadalupe maar is one of the few phreatomagmatic volcanoes occurring within the scoria-cone dominated Plio-Quaternary Michoacan-Guanajuato Volcanic Field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geochronology and palaeomagnetism of a late Proterozoic island arc terrane from the Red Sea Hills, northeast Sudan
TL;DR: In this paper, size fractions and single grains of zircon, hornblende and biotite have been used to define the formation age and thermal history of the northern Haya Terrane (NHT), a late Proterozoic island arc terrane of the Red Sea Hills (RSH), northeast Sudan.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pre-Late-Wisconsin glacial history, coastal Ahklun Mountains, southwestern Alaska – new amino acid, thermoluminescence, and 40Ar/39Ar results
TL;DR: New stratigraphic and geochronologic data from the Togiak Bay area of southwestern Alaska indicate that glaciers advanced from the southern Ahklun Mountains at least three and as many as six times prior to the late Wisconsin this article.
