Paleoarchean U–Pb (SIMS SHRIMP-II) Age of Mafic Granulites from the Bug Complex, Ukrainian Shield

详细

Data on the U–Pb (SIMS SHRIMP-II) age (3628 ± 38 and 2845 ± 65 Ma) of zircon from the inclusion of mafic granulite in gneiss–enderbites of the Bug complex in Ukraine are obtained. A zircon age of 3628 ± 38 Ma for the first time has allowed us to identify the occurrence of basic magmatism at the Paleo- and Eoarchean boundary in the Bug region. The age of 2845 ± 65 Ma dates the imposed metamorphism manifested everywhere in the Bug region that led to considerable amphibolization and partial melting of the rock.
