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.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Hf isotope composition of cratonic mantle: LAM-MC-ICPMS analysis of zircon megacrysts in kimberlites

TL;DR: In this article, the isotopic composition of Hf has been measured in 124 mantle-derived zircon megacrysts from African, Siberian and Australian kimberlites, using a laser-ablation microprobe (LAM) and a multi-collector ICPMS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Zircon chemistry and magma mixing, SE China: In-situ analysis of Hf isotopes, Tonglu and Pingtan igneous complexes

TL;DR: In this article, in-situ LAM-MC-ICPMS microanalysis shows large variations in 176Hf/177Hf (up to 15 eHf units) between zircons of different growth stages within a single rock, and between zones within single zircon grains, suggesting that each of the observed magmas in both complexes developed through hybridisation of ≥2 magmas with different sources.
Journal ArticleDOI

Igneous zircon: trace element composition as an indicator of source rock type

TL;DR: In this paper, the concentrations of 26 trace elements have been determined for zircons from a wide range of different rock types and reveal distinctive elemental abundances and chondrite-normalised trace element patterns for specific rock types.
