TLDR
In this article, U-Pb LA-ICP-MS analysis on detrital zircons from two samples of Cambrian age (Herreria Formation, Cantabrian Mountains, Spain) revealed very different provenance signatures at the base and top of the formation.About:

Gondwanan basement terranes of the Variscan–Appalachian orogen: Baltican, Saharan and West African hafnium isotopic fingerprints in Avalonia, Iberia and the Armorican Terranes
Bonnie J. Henderson,William J. Collins,J. B. Murphy,Gabriel Gutiérrez-Alonso,Gabriel Gutiérrez-Alonso,Martin Hand +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detrital zircon U-Pb-Hf dataset from Neoproterozoic-Silurian sedimentary sequences in NW Iberia and Avalonia, in conjunction with the comprehensive existing datasets from potential source cratons, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
The pre-orogenic detrital zircon record of the Peri-Gondwanan crust
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a statistical approach to data mining and quantitatively evaluating detrital age spectra for sedimentary provenance analyses and palaeogeographic reconstructions.
Journal ArticleDOI
How far can we trust provenance and crustal evolution information from detrital zircons? A South African case study
TL;DR: In this paper, detrital zircon data from Phanerozoic sedimentary cover sequences in South Africa suggest that this source-to-sink relationship has been obscured by repeated events of sedimentary recycling.

U–Pb ages and Hf-isotope data of detrital zircons from the late Neoarchean-Paleoproterozoic Minas Basin, SE Brazil
Carmen I. Martínez Dopico,Cristiano Lana,Hugo Moreira,Lucas F. Cassino,Fernando Flecha de Alkmim +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present detrital zircon U-Pb age patterns coupled with Lu-Hf data for 18 samples, representing different stages of the Minas Basin evolution.

Testing the Avalonian affinity of the South Portuguese Zone and the Neoproterozoic evolution of SW Iberia through detrital zircon populations
TL;DR: In this paper, detrital zircons from the South Portuguese Zone (SPZ) in SW Iberia and the Sehoul Block in northwest Morocco are provided, aimed at deciphering the presumed Avalonian affinity of these two regions.

The application of laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry to in situ U–Pb zircon geochronology
TL;DR: In this paper, a laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometer (LA-ICP-MS) was used for in situ U-Pb zircon geochronology.

TL;DR: The Plesovice zircon as discussed by the authors has a concordant U-Pb age with a weighted mean Pb-206/U-238 date of 337.13 +/- 0.37 Ma (ID-TIMS, 95% confidence limits, including tracer calibration uncertainty).

Detrital zircon record and tectonic setting
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use the difference between the measured crystallization ages (CA) of individual zircon grains present in the sediment and the depositional age (DA) of the sedi-ment to constrain the tectonic setting in which the sediment was deposited.
