Tectonic history of the Grenville-age Trenton Prong inlier, Central Appalachians, USA: evidence from SHRIMP U–Pb geochronology

New zircon U–Pb geochronologic data from the Grenville-age Trenton Prong provide information on the age of magmatism, timing of metamorphism, and post-metamorphic history of the inlier. Diorite gneiss (1318 ± 13 Ma) of the Colonial Lake Suite temporally correlates to magmatic arc sequences that form...
