Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of determination of mineral age, in particular to a method for determining the age of new-born α-quartz in mylonite matrix. Background technique
[0002] The ductile shear zone is a very common fault zone in geological structures, and it is an important window to see the deformation characteristics of rocks in deep structural layers. In recent years, with the deepening of its research, especially through the in-depth study of ductile shear zone geometry, kinematics, dynamics and rheological properties, the importance of ductile shear zone in the study of orogenic belts and its rheology The importance of geosciences is increasing day by day. Therefore, the age definition of ductile shearing is more and more important.
[0003] The most commonly used method for defining ductile shear ages is muscovite 40 Ar- 39 Ar dating and SHRIMP zircon U-Pb dating.
[0004] 40 Ar- 39 Ar method age determination is based on the...
