  • 2018

    • Five Hadean (> 4 Ga) aged zircon grains from the Jack Hills metasedimentary belt have been investigated by a secondary ion mass spectrometry scanning ion image technique. This technique has the ability to obtain accurate and precise full U-Pb systematics on a scale < 5 μm, as well as document the spatial distribution of U, Th and Pb. All five of the grains investigated here have complex cathodoluminescence patterns that correlate to different U, Th, and Pb concentration domains. The age determinations for these different chemical zones indicate multiple reworking events that are preserved in each grain and have affected the primary crystalized zircon on the scale of < 10 μm, smaller than conventional ion microprobe spot analyses. In comparison to the spot analyses performed on these grains, these new scanning ion images and age determinations indicate that almost half of the spot analyses have intersected several age and chemical domains in both fractured and unfractured parts of the individual crystals. Some of these unfractured, mixed domain spot analyses have concordant ages that are inaccurate. Thus, if the frequency of spot analyses intersecting mixed domains here is even close to representative of all other studies of the Jack Hills zircon population, it makes the interpretation of any trace element, Hf, or O isotopic data present in the literature tenuous. Lastly, all of the grains analysed here preserve at least two distinguishable 207Pb/206Pb ages. These ages are preserved in core-rim and/or complex internal textural relationships in unfractured domains. These secondary events took place at ca. 4.3, 4.2, 4.1, 4.0, 3.7, and 2.9 Ga, which are coincident with previously determined statistically robust age peaks present in this zircon population.

  • A Pb isotopic resolution to the Martian meteorite age paradox
  • 2016
  • Ingår i: Earth and Planetary Science Letters. - : Elsevier BV. - 0012-821X .- 1385-013X. ; 433, s. 241-248

    • Determining the chronology and quantifying various geochemical reservoirs on planetary bodies is fundamental to understanding planetary accretion, differentiation, and global mass transfer. The Pb isotope compositions of individual minerals in the Martian meteorite Chassigny have been measured by Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS). These measurements indicate that Chassigny has mixed with a Martian reservoir that evolved with a long-term U-238/Pb-204 (mu) value similar to two times higher than those inferred from studies of all other Martian meteorites except 4.428 Ga clasts in NWA7533. Any significant mixing between this and an unradiogenic reservoir produces ambiguous trends in Pb isotope variation diagrams. The trend defined by our new Chassigny data can be used to calculate a crystallization age for Chassigny of 4.526 +/- 0.027 Ga (2 sigma) that is clearly in error as it conflicts with all other isotope systems, which yield a widely accepted age of 1.39 Ga. Similar, trends have also been observed in the Shergottites and have been used to calculate a >4 Ga age or, alternatively, attributed to terrestrial contamination. Our new Chassigny data, however, argue that the radiogenic component is Martian, mixing occurred on the surface of Mars, and is therefore likely present in virtually every Martian meteorite. The presence of this radiogenic reservoir on Mars resolves the paradox between Pb isotope data and all other radiogenic isotope systems in Martian meteorites. Importantly, Chassigny and the Shergottites are likely derived from the northern hemisphere of Mars, while NWA 7533 originated from the Southern hemisphere, implying that the U-rich reservoir, which most likely represents some form of crust, must be widespread. The significant age difference between SNC meteorites and NWA 7533 is also consistent with an absence of tectonic recycling throughout Martian history.

  • Study of the Dissolution of Stainless-Steel Slag Minerals in Different Acid Environments to Promote Their Use for the Treatment of Acidic Wastewaters
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Applied Sciences. - : MDPI AG. - 2076-3417. ; 11:24
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Several stainless-steel slags have been successfully employed in previous studies as substitutes for lime in the treatment of industrial acidic wastewaters. This study deepens the knowledge of such application, by analyzing the neutralizing capacity of different slags related to their mineral compositions. To do so, firstly the chemical and mineral compositions of all the slag samples are assessed. Then, 0.5 g, 1 g, 2 g of each slag and 0.25 g and 0.5 g of lime are used to neutralize 100 g of 0.1 M HCl or HNO3 solutions. After the has neutralization occurred, the solid residues are extracted and analyzed using XRD spectroscopy. Then, the solubility of the minerals is assessed and ranked, by comparing the XRD spectra of the residues with the obtained pH values. The results show that minerals such as dicalcium silicate and bredigite are highly soluble in the selected experimental conditions, while minerals such as merwinite and akermanite, only partially. Moreover, Al-rich slags seem to perform poorly due to the formation of hydroxides, which generate extra protons. However, when the weight of slag is adequately adjusted, Al-rich slags can increase the pH values to higher levels compared to the other studied slags.

  • Two Neoarchean tectonothermal events on the western edge of the North Atlantic Craton, as revealed by SIMS dating of the Saglek Block, Nain Province, Labrador
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Journal of the Geological Society. - : Geological Society of London. - 0016-7649 .- 2041-479X. ; 177:1
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The Saglek Block forms the northern part of the Nain Province and underwent widespread metamorphism at c. 2.7 Ga, producing the dominant gneissosity and intercalation of supracrustal sequences. Zircon dating of gneiss samples collected along 80 km of the Labrador coast from Ramah Bay in the north to Hebron Fjord in the south confirms the widespread extent of high-grade metamorphism between 2750 and 2700 Ma. In addition, a distinct event between 2550 and 2510 Ma produced felsic melt with peritectic garnet in metavolcanic gneiss and granoblastic recrystallization in mafic granulite. Ductile deformation of granite emplaced at c. 2550 Ma indicates that this later event involved a degree of tectonism during high-T metamorphism. Such tectonism may be related to a hypothesized post-2.7 Ga juxtaposition of the predominantly Eoarchean Saglek Block against the Mesoarchean Hopedale Block, along a north–south boundary that extends from the coast near Nain to offshore of Saglek Bay. Evidence of reworking of c. 2.7 Ga gneisses by c. 2.5 Ga tectonothermal activity has been found elsewhere on the margins of the North Atlantic Craton, of which the Nain Province represents the western margin. In particular, a recent suggestion that c. 2.5 Ga metamorphic ages along the northern margin of the North Atlantic Craton in SW Greenland may record the final assembly of the craton could also apply to the western margin as represented by the rocks of the Nain Province.Supplementary material: Plots and geochemical data are available at https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.c.4567934

  • A tonalitic analogue to ancient detrital zircon
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Chemical Geology. - : Elsevier BV. - 0009-2541 .- 1872-6836. ; 499, s. 43-57
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • A zircon population from an Archean tonalite sample from southern West Greenland has been used as a source analogue in order to test common methods and approaches applied to ancient detrital zircon populations. Measurements of U-Th-Pb, oxygen and Lu-Hf isotopes as well as rare earth element and Ti concentrations were made in these zircon crystals and, where possible, in multiple areas within a single grain. The population is dominated by oscillatory zoned cores aged 3.82 Ga with an isotopically and compositionally distinct rim that formed at 3.59 Ga. We demonstrate that multiple age components may be erroneously inferred from within these oscillatory zoned zircon cores, both from the total population and within individual grains. This has bearing on other zircon-hosted geochemical systems, as temporal correlations may be incorrectly assigned. Oxygen and Lu-Hf isotope compositions are relatively consistent through the population with only a small number of outliers. Ranges in rare earth element and Ti abundances are evident from the total population, from which apparent inverse cooling trends may be inferred. Additionally, we show that even with enhanced filtering of Ti concentrations using light rare earth element abundances, crystallisation temperatures derived from zircon grains of a single, hand sample sized rock can yield both wide and bimodal results. Since even simple, single “source rock” zircon populations may, without careful scrutiny, portray artificially complex results, particular care must be taken in the interpretation of complex ancient detrital zircon populations.

  • Assessing the reliability of detrital zircon in Early-Earth provenance studies
  • 2018
  • Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Our understanding of the Early Earth and the processes that have shaped its evolution have spawned predominantly from the geochemical and isotopic signatures of a small number of zircon populations around the world. Studies of trace element distributions, Hf and O isotope systematics as well as mineral inclusion chemistry in detrital zircon are combined with U-Pb chronology in order to constrain source rock characteristics. However, previous research has highlighted the potential for primary isotopic and geochemical signatures to be modified after deposition, enhanced by self-induced radiation damage and crystal-plastic deformation. Further complications arise when an unknown number of source rocks contribute to the detrital sediments, or when the source rocks are absent as is the case for Hadean detrital zircon. In this thesis, a range of analytical methods are applied to relatively uncharted ancient detrital zircon populations, in addition to a systematic investigation into the behaviour of titanium, rare earth elements, U-Th-Pb, Lu-Hf and O isotopes in a magmatic source-rock analogue to such ancient detrital zircon suites. Three localities are studied: Mt. Alfred, within the Yilgarn Craton of Western Australia (detrital study); the Saglek Block, the western-most extent of the North Atlantic Craton in northern Labrador (detrital study); and a locality south of Isua in southern West Greenland (analogue study). We have utilised a CAMECA ims 1280 Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometer (SIMS) for its high spatial resolution and small volume sampling, except for the Lu-Hf analyses which were carried out using a Laser Ablation Multicollector Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (LA-MC-ICP-MS).The main outcomes of this study are threefold. 1) Heavily discordant, ancient detrital zircon populations require extensive data filtering in order to produce reliable data for age comparison. Further, age estimations of pervasive Pb loss even in metamict detrital zircon may be achieved using intragrain discordia intercept ages. Applying this in a regional sense reveals that detrital zircon from Mt. Alfred, Western Australia have a distinct provenance in comparison to other metasedimentary units of the Youanmi Terrane, and bear resemblance to the Mt. Narryer metasediments of the Narryer Terrane. 2) Detrital zircon from metasedimentary rocks exposed to high grade metamorphism in the Saglek Block, Northern Labrador yield predominantly Mesoarchaean age signatures, along with a minor Eoarchaean aged component. Lu-Hf isotope data from these zircon reveal up to five near-chondritic populations. U-Pb-Hf data from two samples of metapelite (L1407 and L1408) suggest that a previous re-assignment of deposition age for this unit to >3.95 Ga is unsubstantiated, undermining later studies based on that interpretation. 3) Geochemical complexities in zircon from an Eoarchaean meta-tonalite, taken as a source analogue to ancient detrital zircon, challenge the assumptions and interpretations drawn from detrital zircon studies. Lu-Hf and O isotope systems display mostly homogenous compositions, despite recognised U-Pb disturbance. Petrogenetic trace element proxies such as REE and Ti yield heterogeneous results, even within individual grains. Discerning magmatic signals from detrital zircon populations can therefore, without careful scrutiny, portray artificially complex results and consequently, lead to false interpretations.

  • Geochronology of detrital zircon from the Saglek Block, Northern Labrador
  • Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • The Archean metasedimentary rocks of the Saglek Block of the Nain Province, Northern Labrador provide invaluable insight into the Earth’s early evolution. Preliminary mapping campaigns and geochronological studies have indicated the presence of two temporally distinct, yet visually similar supracrustal units, ranging in depositional age from the Eoarchaean Nulliak supracrustal association to the Mesoarchaean Upernavik supracrustal association, potentially equivalent if not older than the oldest exposed supracrustal sequences on Earth to date (Nutman et al. 1989b; Schiøtte et al. 1989b, 1992; Komiya et al. 2015a).We present a comprehensive set of U-Th-Pb-Hf isotope data of detrital zircon from eight metasedimentary rocks of the Saglek Block. The zircon in these samples are younger than or equivalent in age with the local ca. 3.72 Ga Uivak I Gneiss, apart from one inherited core yielding a 207Pb/206Pb age of 3878 ± 20 Ma (2σ). Further, these data indicate deposition ages between ca. 3.2 - 2.8 Ga and 2.7 Ga. Therefore all samples demonstrate affinity with the Upernavik supracrustal association. This finding stands in contrast to the previous assignment of one sample ( L1454; Ryan, 1993; Ryan and Martineau, 2012), and recent reassignment of two samples presented here ( L1407, L1408; Komiya et al., 2017, 2015a) to the Eoarchaean Nulliak supracrustal association.

  • U-Pb age distribution recorded in zircons from Archean quartzites in the Mt. Alfred area, Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Chemical Geology. - : Elsevier. - 0009-2541 .- 1872-6836. ; 310, s. 278-290
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The U-Th-Pb isotopic data from detrital zircon grains from five samples of Archean quartzite from the Mt. Alfred area of the Illaara greenstone belt in the Yilgarn Craton of Western Australia are presented in this study. The zircon grains are typically fractured and contain both irregular and oscillatory zoned internal structures as revealed by cathodoluminescence imaging. Concordant 207Pb/206Pb ages range between 3109 ± 17 and 3918 ± 16 Ma (2σ), with three main age peaks at ca. 3640, 3690 and 3760 Ma. Older 207Pb/206Pb ages up to 4067 ± 5 Ma are strongly affected by at least one recent disturbance event, however one single-grain discordia yields an upper intercept age of 4107 ± 12 (MSWD = 1.2). A further sixteen zircon grains with multiple analyses define discordia that suggest U-Pb disturbance events in the Neoarchean and the Mesozoic, the latter as a result of invasive low temperature weathering solutions. The notable lack of grains with ages less than ∼3.6 Ga in the Mt. Alfred detrital zircon population differentiates it from other quartzite samples from both the Illaara Formation and the Eoarchean zircon-bearing metasedimentary rocks of the Narryer Terrane. Also, the limited spread of zircon ages between 3640 and 3760 Ma suggests a relatively uniform and possibly local source region. However, no rocks of this age have been found in the Youanmi Terrane. This implies either the distal transport of similarly aged clastic sediments at 3.1 Ga from the Narryer Gneiss Complex (NGC) to the Mt. Alfred area, or the previous existence of NGC-like rocks near the Illaara greenstone belt that are either not currently recognised or have since been destroyed.

  • U-Pb dating of detrital zircon from the Mt. Alfred area, Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia
  • 2016
  • Licentiatavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Hadean and Paleo-Eoarchean aged detrital zircon provide a rare glimpse into the nature of the early Earth. Thus, the characterisation of new localities with rocks that host Hadean and Paleo-Eoarchean zircon provide invaluable insight into the Earth’s early crust. We report high spatial resolution SIMS U-Th-Pb data in detrital zircon from five samples of the Mt. Alfred Archean quartzite located in the Illaara Greenstone Belt, Yilgarn Craton in Western Australia. To date, only two studies have published detrital age data for this locality (Wyche et al., 2004; Thern and Nelson, 2012). A total of 487 spots in 450 zircon grains have been analysed for U-Th-Pb and the internal structure of the grains has been studied by cathodoluminescence imaging. Concordant 207Pb/206Pb ages range between 3109 ± 17 and 3918 ± 16 Ma (2σ), with three main age peaks at ca. 3640, 3690 and 3760 Ma. 207Pb/206Pb ages of up to 4067 ± 5 Ma were found, but these were highly discordant. At least two Pb-loss events are evident during the Neoarchean and Permian-Triassic. The Neoarchean event is implied from highly metamict zircon cores producing 207Pb/206Pb ages ca. 2.7-2.8 Ga, younger than a crosscutting quartz-tourmaline vein formed at 2.94 Ga. Single-grain discordia trends define the more recent Pb-loss event, with eight grains producing a weighted average lower intercept age of 224 ± 35 Ma (2σ).We propose that the similarity of ages between the Mt. Alfred detrital zircon age distribution and the Meeberrie gneiss of the Narryer Gneiss Complex (NGC) imply the distal transport of these sediments over ca. 300 km, or the previous existence of NGC-like rocks near the Illaara greenstone belt. The noticeable lack of detrital zircon aged ca. 3.34 Ga as observed in all other detrital populations of the Illaara Formation suggests a different provenance for the Mt. Alfred quartzites.

  • Complexity of the early Archean Uivak Gneiss : Insights from Tigigakyuk Inlet, Saglek Block, Labrador, Canada and possible correlations with south West Greenland
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Precambrian Research. - : Elsevier BV. - 0301-9268 .- 1872-7433. ; 315, s. 103-119
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The Saglek Block of Labrador comprises Eoarchean to Neoarchean lithologies, metamorphosed at high temperature at ca. 2.7 Ga. Here, we investigate the gneisses of Tigigakyuk Inlet, previously identified as the locality exposing the most ancient rocks in the Saglek Block. New geochronological and geochemical results reveal a multistage history. Precise magmatic emplacement ages of 3.75 to 3.71 Ga refine the age of the Uivak Gneiss. Zircon rims and neoblastic grains with low Th/U record metamorphism at ca. 3.6 and 2.8-2.7 Ga. Magmatism between these tectono-metamorphic events is recorded by the presence of meta-mafic dykes in the gneisses, gabbroic enclaves in ca. 2.7 Ga syn-tectonic granitoids, as well as by a ca. 3.56 Ga age for monzonitic gneiss in which metamorphic zircon is present as xenocrysts. Felsic (TTG) magmatism between ca. 3.75 Ga and 3.71 Ga, as well as metamorphism at both ca. 3.6 Ga and 2.8-2.7 Ga, is also recognised in the Itsaq Gneiss Complex of south West Greenland, and is restricted to the Færingehavn Terrane. Our new data enable a more rigorous correlation between these formerly conjugate parts of the North Atlantic Craton.
