Provenance and age constraints of Paleozoic siliciclastic rocks from the Ellsworth Mountains in West Antarctica, as determined by detrital zircon geochronology

New sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe (SHRIMP) U-Pb detrital zircon ages from Cambrian to Permian-Carboniferous siliciclastic units in the Ellsworth Mountains constrain their provenance and maximum depositional age, as well as providing key information as to the tectonic evolution of a proble...
