  31. <meta content="Tasmania forms an enigmatic province within the Neoproterozoic to Cambrian history of Australia. It lies at the
  32. boundary between Australia and North America in most Rodinia reconstructions but no reliable lithostratigraphic
  33. correlations have been reported with either mainland Australia or North America. We used detrital zircon age spectra,
  34. measured by LAM-ICP-MS, of Neoproterozoic and Cambrian sandstones in Tasmania to search for evidence of
  35. correlations with these two continental blocks during the time slice critical to Rodinia breakup. The Tasmanian
  36. sandstones are dominated by 1600-1900 Ma and 1200-1500 Ma age zircons. There is little evidence for Grenville
  37. (~1100 Ma) and Ross (~550 Ma) Orogen sources in these sandstones, in contrast to detrital zircon age spectra of
  38. similar age rocks in South Australia. The detrital zircon age spectra of Tasmanian sandstones are different from age
  39. spectra reported from British Columbia. They are very similar to age spectra reported from Cambrian sandstones of
  40. Nevada, supporting Rodinia reconstructions that place southwestern USA near to Tasmania in the

It lies at the&#13;
  327. boundary between Australia and North America in most Rodinia reconstructions but no reliable lithostratigraphic&#13;
  328. correlations have been reported with either mainland Australia or North America. We used detrital zircon age spectra,&#13;
  329. measured by LAM-ICP-MS, of Neoproterozoic and Cambrian sandstones in Tasmania to search for evidence of&#13;
  330. correlations with these two continental blocks during the time slice critical to Rodinia breakup. The Tasmanian&#13;
  331. sandstones are dominated by 1600-1900 Ma and 1200-1500 Ma age zircons. There is little evidence for Grenville&#13;
  332. (~1100 Ma) and Ross (~550 Ma) Orogen sources in these sandstones, in contrast to detrital zircon age spectra of&#13;
  333. similar age rocks in South Australia. The detrital zircon age spectra of Tasmanian sandstones are different from age&#13;
  334. spectra reported from British Columbia. They are very similar to age spectra reported from Cambrian sandstones of&#13;
  335. Nevada, supporting Rodinia reconstructions that place southwestern USA near to Tasmania in the&#13;
  336. Neoproterozoic.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" border="0" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Keywords:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">zircon; age; Rodinia; tectonics; Tasmania Australia</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/260100.html">260000 Earth Sciences &gt; 260100 Geology</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Collections:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">UNSPECIFIED</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">670</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">Mr Ruben Chan</span></span></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited On:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">01 Feb 2007</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Last Modified:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">23 Jan 2008 14:26</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ePrint Statistics:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a target="ePrintStats" href="/es/index.php?action=show_detail_eprint;id=670;">View statistics for this ePrint</a></td></tr></table><p align="right">Repository Staff Only: <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/cgi/users/home?screen=EPrint::View&amp;eprintid=670">item control page</a></p>
