摘要

Zircon is the most widely used mineral for geochronology purposes, as parts of it can behave as a closed system for billions of years and resist most geochemical alteration; yet, its use in Quaternary geochronology has been largely overseen, and limited to few laboratories. Here we present a new simple methodology to obtain precise and accurate ~(238)U-~(230)Th-~(232)Th composition from zircons using LAMCICPMS, which permits obtaining meaningful ages of well constrained Pleistocene and Holocene volcanic samples from Mexico. The results are compared with that of alternative instrumental techniques, such as SIMS, and other radiogenic dating methods (~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar, ~(36)Cl and ~(14)C). Our results show that the technique presented here is superior to SIMS in terms of precision, and analysis time, and equivalent in terms of sensitivity and spatial resolution. Moreover, the ~(230)Th/U ages obtained here are also consistent with those obtained by other radiogenic dating methods, as well as the geological and geochemical constrains imposed by comparing ages from different mineral phases. The ~(230)Th- ~(232)Th- ~(238)U analysis of zircons by LA-MCICPMS allows to obtain significantly richer isotope information from any set of Quaternary zircons, opening a window into the temporal evolution of crustal magma chamber.
