Routine low‐damage apatite U‐Pb dating using laser ablation–multicollector–ICPMS
Abstract
[1] Apatite is a common U-bearing accessory mineral with a U-Pb closure temperature of ∼500°C, making U-Pb dating of apatite a potentially valuable thermochronometer. However, its low U concentration and tendency to incorporate common lead has limited widespread application to destructive isotope dilution methods. We overcome previous limitations by using a Nu Plasma multicollector ICPMS with an attached short-pulse excimer laser, and by...
