Oxygen isotopes in detrital zircons: Insight into crustal recycling during the evolution of the Greenland Shield

Insight into the interactions between crust and hydrosphere, through the protracted evolution of the Greenland Shield, can be provided by oxygen isotopes in the mineral remnants of its denuded crust. Detrital zircons with ages of 3900 Ma to 900 Ma found within an arkosic sandstone dike of the Neopro...
