Retention of radiation damage in zircon xenocrysts from kimberlites, Northern Yakutia

We have studied zircon xenocrysts from Mesozoic kimberlites from the Kuoika and Ary–Mastakh fields in Northern Yakutia. Zircon xenocrysts are assumed to originate from crustal rocks. Our SHRIMP (Sensitive High mass Resolution Ion MicroProbe) analyses yielded predominantly concordant U–Th–Pb ages (up...
