#openaccess in #PhysicalReviewResearch led by
@geochronchris.bsky.social exploring links between terrestrial #zircon deep time O-isotope records and galactic processes suggesting potential influences on crustal evolution.

Another paper #openaccess in the same issue of #EPSL led by @andizametzer.bsky.social looking at ways to mitigate bias in detrital mineral geochronology. How many grains do you need and how are they best selected?

Congrats to Jiankang on his 1st PhD paper. #Collaboration with JdLC, CSIRO, GA, and GSWA demonstrating accessory mineral dating in evaporites to better understand salt sequences and their growing relevance for H-storage. #openaccess in #EPSL

#openaccess in @jsedimentology.bsky.social explore how heavy mineral analysis at the basin and continent scale informs on basement composition, weathering, erosion, sediment storage and reworking.

Shoutout to Priyanjan Datta for the 1st paper of his #PhD in #Lithos linking granite Pb-isotope signatures to intracrustal fractionation, crustal thickness, and the evolution of the Delamerian & Lachlan Fold Belt.

PhD student Lucy Mathieson is at it again tracking fluid-rock interaction through interrogation of #discordant U-Pb #zircon analyses, with another catchy title to boot - "From Discordance to Discovery..." in the JGSL @geolsoc.bsky.social

Hot off the press, published #openaccess in
@agu.org G3 and led by PhD student Lucy Mathieson, explore the potential treasure trove of #discordant data in U/Pb #zircon #geochronology.
