Fission track dating of apatites from Coronation Island
Fission track ages were obtained from two apatite samples from Coronation Island near the Antarctic Peninsula. These ages, 177 and 188m.y. (λ_F=6.85x10^-17yr^-1), represent the last time the rocks cooled below approximately 100°C and probably reflect regional uplift and cooling. No embargo
