Detrital zircon (U-Th)/He ages from Paleozoic strata of the Severnaya Zemlya Archipelago: Deciphering multiple episodes of Paleozoic tectonic evolution within the Russian High Arctic
Combined (U-Th)/He and U-Pb detrital zircon geochronological data are reported from Ordovician to Devonian strata of the Severnaya Zemlya archipelago to address the paleogeography of the Kara Terrane in the Russian High Arctic. (U-Th)/He ages from all six samples analyzed were not reset after sedime...
