The ore-forming age of 400Ma is consistent with the mineralization age of most of the reported ages in the Hetian areas. The multiple age groups also indicate multi-stage mineralization of nephrite. Keywords: Gobi nephrite / Mg-skarn deposit / ore-forming fluids / zircon SHRIMP U-Pb dating...
There is growing interest in rock surface burial and exposure luminescence dating for use in Quaternary science and in archaeology. Such methods have enormous potential both in increasing the range of sedimentary contexts that can be dated, and improving the accuracy and the precision of dating ...
These schemes, when used in conjunction with other dating methods—such as radiometric dating (the measurement of radioactive decay), paleoclimatic dating, and paleomagnetic determinations—that, in general, were developed within the last half of the 20th century, have led to somewhat less confusion...
