    Description: We test a new approach to understanding the tectonic evolution of passive margins by using fission-track analysis on detrital apatites from sediments deposited offshore East Greenland. These apatites have not undergone postdepositional track annealing and therefore reflect provenance. The apatites preserve a component of the source rocks' thermal history that otherwise may not be retained within the present-day outcrop. Fission-track derived denudational histories from samples at Ocean Drilling Program drill sites offshore East Greenland at lat 63°N are compared with data from the onshore Singertat Complex. Previous apatite fission-track studies and geomorphic mapping of the East Greenland coast have shown that locally up to 6 km of denudation may have occurred, implying significant tectonic or magmatic activity starting as much as 30 m.y. after breakup at 56 Ma. In contrast, apatite fission-track data presented here record 〈2 km of Cenozoic denudation in southeast Greenland, probably driven by magmatic underplating at the time of breakup. Large-magnitude, postrift denudation of East Greenland is restricted to the area around Kangerdlugssuaq (68°N). The timing (〈40-50 Ma) and magnitude are in accord with revised plume track models suggesting that the Iceland plume crossed the margin here during the late Eocene.

    Notes: Abstract 96 new fission track (FT) apatite and zircon, K/Ar and Rb/Sr biotite and muscovite ages are presented for 19 samples (mainly acid gneisses) from a 40 km traverse through the Lepontine Alps in the Maggia Valley, South Central Switzerland. Plotting measured mineral ages against assumed system closure temperatures yields cooling rates for each sample. The entire profile shows a fairly uniform Late Neogene-Recent mean uplift rate of ∼0.5 mm/a, confirmed by a gradient of FT apatite age with elevation. Cooling from higher temperatures occurred earlier in the south, where uplift rates of ∼2.2 mm/a in the Steep Belt (root zone) indicate 〉9 km Early Miocene uplift of the northern Pennine block. This uplift started before 23 Ma and is interpreted as resulting from a major phase of backthrusting along the Insubric Line, and as dating the formation of the mylonite belt. Estimated cooling rates constrain the timing of Lepontine Mid-Tertiary metamorphism: 3 schematic models are proposed which also consider published Rb/Sr, K/Ar mica and hornblende and U/Pb monazite ages. Slow cooling, differential initial heating and subsequent cooling of different parts of the Central Alps and post-38 Ma cooling with syntectonic metamorphism at ∼27 Ma are postulated as alternative interpretations of isotopic data and geologic evidence. From extrapolation between K/Ar and Rb/Sr mica ages and apatite FT ages, 240±50° C is proposed as the closure temperature for the retention of fission tracks in zircon.

    Description / Table of Contents: Abstract Definition of time and temperature pathways for episodes of lithospheric movement provides not simply a chronological framework for crustal dynamism but also permits estimation of rates of crustal cooling and uplift. Important aspects of such pathways are the constraints provided for timing of both plate collision and lithospheric extension. Classically Rb-Sr and K-Ar mica ages have been used to delineate rates of cooling and exhumation in the Central Alps, by comparison of the measured ages with estimates of temperatures for the retention of daughter isotopes. Similar use of fission track apatite and zircon ages has provided data for lower temperature intervals (∼ 100 and ∼ 200°C respectively). Recent detailed studies of the annealing kinetics of fission tracks in apatite yield more precise estimates of cooling rate and permit predictive modelling of age and length parameters for given T,t pathways. In continental collision zones, fast episodic uplift in the western Alps can be contrasted with contemporaneous monotonic uplift in the Central Alps. Additional examples may be seen in the Tibet-Himalayan orogenic belt, in the southern Alps of New Zealand and in the Bolivian Andes. In divergent teceonic regimes, the record of uplift associated with rifting has been recorded by fission track ages in the southeastern Australian margin and around the Red Sea. In an intra-plate tectonic setting, our current fission track reconnaissance study in the British Isles is revealing a hitherto unrecognised thermal history for crystalline and sediment alike.
    Abstract: Résumé L'établissement de trajets temps-température pour des épisodes de mouvements lithosphériques ne fournit pas seulement un canevas chronologique à la dynamique crustale; il permet aussi d'estimer les vitesses du refroidissement crustal et du soulèvement. Un aspect important de tels trajets réside dans les restrictions qu'ils apportent dans le déroulement chronologique des collisions de plaques et des extensions lithosphériques. Des déterminations classiques d'âge Rb-Sr et K-Ar sur mica ont été utilisées pour estimer les taux de refroidissement et d'exhumation dans les Alpes Centrales, par comparaison entre les âges mesurés et les températures de rétention des isotopes filles. De même les âges déterminés par traces de fission sur apatite et zircon ont fourni des informations sur les intervalles de température inférieurs (respectivement: ± 100° et 200°C. Des travaux détaillés récents relatifs à la cinétique de recuit des traces de fission dans 1'apatite ont fourni une estimation plus précise du taux de refroidissement et ont permis une modélisation prévisionnelle des paramètres d'âge et de longueur pour des trajets (T, t) donnés. Dans les zones de collision continentale, le soulèvement rapide et épisodique des Alpes Occidentales contraste avec le soulèvement monotone concommittant des Alpes Centrales. D'autres exemples sont fournis par la ceinture orogénique de l'Himalaya-Tibet, par les Alpes du Sud de Nouvelle Zélande et par les Andes de Bolivie. Dans les régimes tectoniques divergents, l'enregistrement des surrections associées à la formation des rifts a été réalisé par la méthode des traces de fission dans la bordure sud-est de l'Australie et autour de la Mer Rouge. Dans une situation tectonique intraplaque, l'étude de reconnaissance par traces de fission que nous poursuivons dans les Iles Britanniques révèle une histoire thermique, jusqu'ici inconnue, identique pour le Cristallin et les sédiments.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Die Definition von Zeit- und Temperaturpfaden für Episoden der Lithosphärenbewegung liefert nicht nur einen chronologischen Rahmen für die Krustendynamik, sondern erlaubt auch Abschätzungen der Krustenabkühlungs- und -heraushebungsraten. Wichtige Aspekte dieser Pfade sind die Grenzen die durch die Wahl des Zeitpunkts, sowohl für die Plattenkollision als auch der Lithosphärendehnung festgesetzt sind. Klassische Rb-Sr und K-Ar Glimmeralter sind zum Bestimmen der Abkühlungs- und Freilegungsraten in den Zentralalpen, im Vergleich zu den gemessenen Altern mit Temperaturabschätzungen für die Retention von Tochterisotopen benutzt worden. Beim ähnlichen Gebrauch von Zerfallsspuren lieferten Apatit- und Zirkonalter Daten für niedrige Temperaturintervalle (∼ 100 und ∼ 200°C). Kürzliche detaillierte Studien der getemperten Bewegungen der Spaltspuren in Apatit lieferten genauere Schätzungen der Abkühlungsrate, und erlaubten ein vorhersehbares modellieren der Zeit- und Längenparameter für gegebene T-t Pfade. In kontinentalen Kollisionszonen kann eine schnelle episodische Heraushebung, wie beispielsweise in den Westalpen, einer zeitgleichen monotonen Heraushebung der Zentralalpen gegenübergestellt werden. Zusätzliche Beispiele können im Tibet-Himalaya Orogengürtel, in den Südalpen von Neuseeland und in den bolivianischen Anden gefunden werden. In divergenten tektonischen Regimen wurde der Hinweis vom Einhergehen der Heraushebung und des Riflings in Spaltspurenaltern festgehalten; zum Beispiel am südöstlichen australischen Rand und am Roten Meer. Bei tektonischer Lage im Platteninnern, offenbaren unsere gegenwärtigen Spaltspurenerkundungsstudien der Britischen Inseln eine bisher unerkannte thermale Geschichte des Kristallins und der Sedimente gleichermaßen.

    Description: LA-ICP-MS (laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry) has the potential to measure uranium concentration for fission-track (FT) chronometry as an alternative to thermal neutron-induced fission of 235U. This study examines the effect that chemical etching, required to reveal spontaneous fission tracks of 238U, has upon LA-ICP-MS analyses. Uranium concentrations were measured before and after etching for six large gem-quality apatite crystals and six zircon samples - three large crystals and three FT age standards. Comparison of the results shows no significant difference in 238U concentrations measured on the etched and unetched mineral surfaces. The 238U concentrations determined by the LA-ICP-MS provide reasonable FT ages for the zircon age standards, which, with the previously reported LA-ICP-MS apatite FT results, promotes the use of the LA-ICP-MS for FT chronometry.
