Summary of results. NTGS laser ablation ICP-MS in situ monazite geochronology project: Constraining the timing of mineralisation and deformation at the Johnnies Reward prospect, and Oonagalabi and Home of Bullion deposits of the Aileron Province

Abstract

This Record presents chronologic, isotopic, and trace element data collected from monazites analysed at the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence in Ore Deposits (CODES) at the University of Tasmania. Monazite was analysed in five samples taken from three base metal deposits and prospects in the Aileron Province of central Australia (Home of Bullion, Johnnies Reward, and Oonagalabi) in order to constrain the timing, duration, and rate of metamorphism and deformation in this region, as well as place potential temporal constraints on mineralisation. For each sample, this report documents the location, lithology, and geologic context; the petrologic context of the analysed monazite; and the isotope data. A chronologic interpretation is also made for each sample.
