Description

The fission track ages (FTA) of several apatite and zircon samples from Habahe rock body in Altai were determined. The FTA of apatites were 51.1-76.9 Ma, and FTA of zircons were 141-149 Ma. Modelling of the palaeo-temperature evolution [T(t)-path] of rock body relies on confined track length measurements and the annealing equations of Laslett et al. (1987). The thermal and uplift history of this region was discussed
