SHRIMP-RG U-Pb ages and trace element data of zircons, and whole-rock Sr-Nd-Pb isotopic data, from Sonoran and Sinaloan Neoproterozoic to Paleogene metaigneous and metasedimentary samples, northern Mexico

Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Catalog Last Checked: August 01, 2026 at 06:07 AM | Dataset Last Updated: September 24, 2025 at 12:00 AM
This dataset accompanies two proposed publications, "Descriptions and age constraints for new Jurassic flora fossils in west-central Sonora, Mexico: Results from U-Pb zircon geochronology, Sr-Nd isotopes, and megafossil taxa" and "Summary of Paleozoic and Mesozoic Rocks in Sonora and northern Sinaloa, Mexico", which will both report zircon SHRIMP-RG U-Pb ages and whole-rock isotope analyses. Samples were collected from the study area by Ricardo Amaya-Martinez and colleagues at the University of Sonora (Hermosillo) and Barney Poole (USGS), who brought them to the USGS Denver for analysis. The analyses were performed from 2004 to 2020.
