A 4463 Ma apparent zircon age from the Jack Hills (Western Australia) resulting from ancient Pb mobilization
Hadean (≥4.0 Ga) zircon grains provide the only direct record of the first half-billion years of Earth’s history. Determining accurate and precise crystallization ages of these ancient zircons is a prerequisite for any interpretation of crustal evolution, surface environment, and geodynamics on the...
