Variations in Zircon Provenance Constrain Age and Geometry of an Early Paleozoic Rift in the Pinjarra Orogen, East Gondwana

The Tumblagooda Sandstone in Western Australia documents Early Paleozoic rifting in East Gondwana and provides the earliest evidence for terrestrial activity of multicellular animals on Earth. We constrain the provenance of this sequence using 737 concordant U–Pb ages of detrital zircons from two st...
