Abstract: The tectonic affinity of South China in paleogeographic reconstructions of the Gondwana supercontinent during the Early Paleozoic remains controversial. Here, we present new detrital monazite U–Pb age data from Lower Devonian Posongchong Formation clastic sedimentary… read more here.

Abstract: Detrital zircon U-Pb age and Hf isotope studies are useful for identifying the chemical evolution of the continental crust. Zircon, however, is typically a magmatic mineral and thus often fails to document the timing of… read more here.
