The internal structure and geodynamics of Mars inferred from a 4.2-Gyr zircon record

The internal structure and geodynamics of Mars inferred from a 4.2-Gyr zircon record

Combining U-Pb ages with Lu-Hf data in zircon provides insights into the magmatic history of rocky planets. The Northwest Africa (NWA) 7034/7533 meteorites are samples of the southern highlands of Mars containing zircon with ages as old as 4476.3 ± 0.9 Ma, interpreted to reflect reworking of the pri...
