Precise U–Pb and Pb–Pb dating of Phanerozoic baddeleyite by SIMS with oxygen flooding technique

Baddeleyite has long been recognized as one of the most important U-bearing minerals for dating silica undersaturated igneous rocks. Age determination of baddeleyite calls for analysis within small volumes using high-resolution secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) because of its minuscule grain si... View More
