Re-Os geochronology of base metal sulfides from cratonic mantle xenoliths : Case study from Somerset Island (Canada) and method development

Robust and reliable time constraints are necessary to infer the formation and evolution of the cratonic mantle. Due to the large fractionation of Re from Os during mantle melting, the Re-Os decay system has been largely used for dating the melting event that led to the formation of the subcontinenta...
