Journal ArticleDOI
The Composition of Zircon and Igneous and Metamorphic Petrogenesis
Paul W.O. Hoskin,Urs Schaltegger +1 more
TL;DR: The importance of zircon in crustal evolution studies is underscored by its predominant use in U-Th-Pb geochronology and investigations of the temporal evolution of both the crust and lithospheric mantle as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atlas of Zircon Textures
TL;DR: In this paper, a selection of both the most typical, but also of the less common, features seen in zircon, categorized according to the different geological processes responsible for their formation are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metamorphic zircon formation by solid-state recrystallization of protolith igneous zircon
Paul W.O. Hoskin,L.P. Black +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the age of metamorphic zircon has been determined using trace element analysis and integrated cathodoluminescence, U-Pb isotope, trace element and electron backscatter diffraction pattern (EBSP) analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trace-element composition of hydrothermal zircon and the alteration of Hadean zircon from the Jack Hills, Australia
TL;DR: In particular, the oldest piece of Earth as discussed by the authors contains both type-1 and type-2 patterns on a 50 μm scale, a phenomenon not yet reported for unaltered magmatic zircon.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rare earth element chemistry of zircon and its use as a provenance indicator
Paul W.O. Hoskin,Trevor Ireland +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured rare earth element (REE) abundances for zircons from a range of common crustal igneous rock types from different tectonic environments, as well as kimberlite, carbonatite, and high-grade metamorphic rocks, to assess the potential of using zircon REE characteristics to infer the rock types present in sediment source regions.
