Ultra-Precise 40Ar/39Ar Geochronology: Development of 38Ar cosmogenic exposure and olivine (U-Th)/He dating techniques; and deciphering the geochemical evolution of the Newer Volcanic Province, SE Australia

In this study, existing (40Ar/39Ar) and underdeveloped (terrestrial cosmogenic 38Ar exposure dating and olivine (U-Th)/He dating) geochronology techniques are used and improved to better understand the igneous geology and landscape evolution of Australia. It is shown that an integral approach of geo...

description In this study, existing (40Ar/39Ar) and underdeveloped (terrestrial cosmogenic 38Ar exposure dating and olivine (U-Th)/He dating) geochronology techniques are used and improved to better understand the igneous geology and landscape evolution of Australia. It is shown that an integral approach of geochemistry and ultra-precise geochronology, using the new generation multi-collector mass spectrometers, is of paramount importance to decipher the volcanic history of the small, intraplate Newer Volcanic Province in SE Australia.
