U/Pb dating of 588 detrital zircons by ion microprobe from Lower Triassic, Permian and lower Paleozoic sandstone samples from the Perth Basin yield ages ranging from Archean to early Paleozoic. The detrital age spectrum of Lower Triassic samples differ from underlying units in lacking Archean and po...
