TL;DR: In this article, the results from a second characterisation of the 91500 zircon, including data from electron probe microanalysis, laser ablation inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometer (LA-ICP-MS), secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), and laser fluorination analyses, were reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Post-collisional strongly peraluminous granites
TL;DR: In this paper, strong peraluminous (SP) granites have formed as a result of post-collisional processes in various orogens, with the pelite-derived SP granites tending to have lower CaO/Na2O ratios than their psammite derived counterparts.
Journal ArticleDOI
A simple method for the precise determination of ≥ 40 trace elements in geological samples by ICPMS using enriched isotope internal standardisation
Stephen Eggins,Jon Woodhead,Leslie Kinsley,Graham Mortimer,Paul J. Sylvester,Malcolm T. McCulloch,Janet M. Hergt,Monica R. Handler +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the combination of enriched isotopes and conventional elemental internal standards permits the precise determination of > 40 trace elements by ICPMS in a broad spectrum of geological matrixes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Post-Collisional Alkaline Granites
TL;DR: Alkaline granites that may have formed in postcollisional plate tectonic environments are present in the Alaskan Cordillera, the New England and Lachlan Fold Belts of Australia, and the Arabian-Nubian Shield as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Community‐Derived Standards for LA‐ICP‐MS U‐(Th‐)Pb Geochronology – Uncertainty Propagation, Age Interpretation and Data Reporting
