An isotopic study of the Island Lake Greenstone Belt, Manitoba: crustal evolution and progressive cratonization in the late Archean

Three new U–Pb zircon ages are reported for units within the Island Lake Greenstone Belt in northern Manitoba: the Jubilee Island dacite (2761 ± 12 Ma), the Chapin Bay tonalite (2748 ± 3 Ma), and the Wassagomach tonalité (2778 ± 5 Ma).
