Abstract
Recent high-precision geochronological studies have delineated three main pulses of basaltic magmatism between ca. 130-80 Ma in the Cretaceous High Arctic Large Igneous Province (HALIP) in northern Canada. Here we report new U-Pb TIMS baddeleyite and zircon dates for samples from Axel Heiberg and Ellesmere Islands, which further support the duration and pulsed nature of the magmatism previously documented. We add new LA-ICPMS U-Pb zircon dates on samples analyzed in a previous study to help resolve age heterogeneity observed in some samples. We also report the first LA-ICPMS zircon Lu-Hf results from HALIP intrusives to better constrain the HALIP mantle source composition. Initial εHf zircon results for five HALIP basalts with minimal evidence for continental crustal contamination from the Canadian Arctic Islands range from +9.0 to +14.7, and indicate extraction from a depleted mantle source similar to plume-derived oceanic plateaux such as Kerguelen.
期刊介绍:
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems (G3) publishes research papers on Earth and planetary processes with a focus on understanding the Earth as a system. Observational, experimental, and theoretical investigations of the solid Earth, hydrosphere, atmosphere, biosphere, and solar system at all spatial and temporal scales are welcome. Articles should be of broad interest, and interdisciplinary approaches are encouraged.
Areas of interest for this peer-reviewed journal include, but are not limited to:
The physics and chemistry of the Earth, including its structure, composition, physical properties, dynamics, and evolution
Principles and applications of geochemical proxies to studies of Earth history
The physical properties, composition, and temporal evolution of the Earth''s major reservoirs and the coupling between them
The dynamics of geochemical and biogeochemical cycles at all spatial and temporal scales
Physical and cosmochemical constraints on the composition, origin, and evolution of the Earth and other terrestrial planets
The chemistry and physics of solar system materials that are relevant to the formation, evolution, and current state of the Earth and the planets
Advances in modeling, observation, and experimentation that are of widespread interest in the geosciences.
