Abstract
New data on the U–Pb age (SHRIMP-II) and trace element composition (SIMS) of zircons from granites of Bolshoi Tyuters Island (Outer Islands of the Gulf of Finland) are presented. The upper intersection of the discordia (1825 ± 11 Ma) is taken as the age of crystallization of granites cutting through secondary quartzites and thereby determines their youngest age. Subconcordant zircons located in the upper part of the discordia have growth oscillatory zoning and geochemical characteristics of zircons of magmatic origin. The age of the lower intersection of discordia and concordia is about 570 Ma. It is supported by the independent zircon generation represented by black CL domains and rims in magmatic zircons characterized by increased contents of non-formula elements (light REEs, Ca, P, Ti, Nb, etc.), up to anomalous values. The age of the lower intersection of discordia and concordia can be considered as related to the Timan (Ediacaran) or Finnmark (Early Caledonian) thermal activation of the Fennoscandian Shield discovered earlier based on zircons from Kola Group gneisses.
期刊介绍:
Doklady Earth Sciences is a journal that publishes new research in Earth science of great significance. Initially the journal was a forum of the Russian Academy of Science and published only best contributions from Russia. Now the journal welcomes submissions from any country in the English or Russian language. Every manuscript must be recommended by Russian or foreign members of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
