This is contribution 451 from the ARC National Key Centre for Geochemical Evolution and Metallogeny of Continents (www.es.mq.edu.au/GEMOC). The MS was improved through the suggestions of editor S. Goldstein. We thank Tom Andersen and Stuart Graham for entertaining and useful discussions on Hf-isotope analysis and the psychology and politics of science.

2023, Gondwana ResearchCitation Excerpt :The 206Pb, 207Pb, 208Pb, 232Th and 238U isotopes were analyzed, with a dwell time on each isotope of 15, 30, 10, 10, and 15 ms. Zircon GJ-1 was used as an external standard for mass bias and instrument drift correction. Instrument consistency and solidity are monitored using a well-characterized Mud Tank (MT) zircon (Belousova et al., 2002; Griffin et al., 2007). During our routine analysis, the MT produced a Concordia age of 720.43 ± 1.46 Ma (1se, n = 45, MSWD = 0.19).

2022, Journal of Asian Earth SciencesCitation Excerpt :Zircon standard 91,500 was analyzed for quality control. Repeated measurements of this standard during our study yielded 176Hf/177Hf = 0.282292 ± 0.000027 (n = 81), which is consistent with the recommended value of Griffin et al. (2007). Apatite grains were separated with the procedures like zircon, then representative grains were handpicked under a binocular stereomicroscope, mounted on adhesive tape, enclosed in epoxy resin and polished to expose their cores.
