Pb-Pb dating of young marbles from Taiwan
Description
A Pb-Pb isochron age is reported for a relatively young carbonate sequence in Taiwan and it is demonstrated that the long-lived U-Pb decay scheme can be used to determine events as young as Mesozoic age. The new results also lead to identification of an early Jurassic ( ∼ 170 Mrr BP) thermal event, which has never before been recognized in the polymetamorphic schist belt (The Tananao Schist) of Taiwan.
