Abstract:
AbstractK–Ar and 40Ar/39Ar ages have been measured on nine mafic volcanic rocks younger than 1 myr from the Snake River Plain (Idaho), Mount Adams (Washington), and Crater Lake (Oregon). The K–Ar ages were calculated from Ar measurements made by isotope dilution and K2O measurements by flame photometry. The 40Ar/39Ar ages are incremental-heating experiments using a low-blank resistance-heated furnace. The results indicate that high-quality ages can be measured on young, mafic volcanic rocks using either the K–Ar or the 40Ar/39Ar technique. The precision of an 40Ar/39Ar plateau age generally is

Abstract:
New 40Ar/39Ar analyses of hornblende, muscovite, biotite, and K-feldspar constrain the timing of deformation and cooling of the southern Taltson magmatic zone, which underwent lower granulite to upper amphibolite grade deformation, in part synchronous with voluminous 1.99–1.92 Ga magmatism. New data are combined with existing K–Ar dates into a regional cooling framework to provide thermotemporal constraints on the deformational history. 40Ar/39Ar hornblende ages of ca. 1900 Ma are interpreted to record relatively rapid cooling following ductile thrusting on the Andrew Lake shear zone, and youn

Abstract. The decay of 40K to the stable isotopes 40Ca and 40Ar is used as a measure of time for both the K-Ca and K-Ar geochronometers, the latter of which is most generally utilized by the variant 40Ar∕39Ar system. The increasing precision of geochronology has forced practitioners to deal with the systematic uncertainties rooted in all radioisotope dating methods. A major component of these systematic uncertainties for the K-Ar and 40Ar∕39Ar techniques is imprecisely determined decay constants and an incomplete knowledge of the decay scheme of 40K.

Slave Province in Canada is an Archean granite–supracrustal terrane at the northwestern corner of the Canadian Shield. It is bordered by the Thelon–Taltson orogen (2.0 to 1.9 Ga) to the southeast and the Wopmay orogen (1.9 to 1.8 Ga) to the west. Acasta gneisses, exposed in the westernmost Slave Province, and the Wopmay rocks, located close to the gneisses, were systematically collected for K–Ar and laser step-heating 40Ar/39Ar single-crystal analyses of the biotite and amphibole. The K–Ar biotite ages of the four Wopmay samples range from 1816 ± 18 Ma to 1854 ± 26 Ma. The 40Ar/39Ar biotite an

The K-bearing mineral components of the 1–2 μm, 0.2–1 μm and &lt;0.2 μm fractions of each clay assemblage together display one of two characteristic patterns of K2O and 40Ar values (the K/Ar signature of the assemblage) on a 40Ar/K2O correlation diagram.

Typically, 40Ar/39Ar dating of phlogopites from deep-seated xenoliths of kimberlite pipes produces estimates that suggest much older ages than those when these pipes were intruded. High-pressure (3 GPa) laboratory experiments enabled the authors to explore the behaviour of argon in the phlogopite structure under the conditions that correspond to the mantle, at the temperatures (from 700 to 1000 °С), far exceeding closure temperature of the K/Ar isotopic system. “Volume diffusion” remains foremost for describing the mobility of argon in phlogopite at high pressures.

Estes crescimentos foram formados diretamente ao redor de K-feldspatos detríticos, em condições superficiais (eodiagênese inicial). A continuidade física entre crescimentos e grãos detríticos impossibilitou sua separação visando a aplicação do método convencional 40K- 40Ar.
