    • U-Pb Ages, Hafnium Isotope Ratios, and Trace Element Concentrations by Laser-ablation Split Stream (LASS) Analysis of Igneous and Metamorphic Zircons from the Yukon-Tanana Upland, Eastern Alaska

    Metadata Updated: September 16, 2025

    This dataset contains U-Pb isotopic data and ages, Hf isotope data, and trace element concentrations of zircon from igneous rocks collected from the Yukon-Tanana Upland, eastern Alaska. The sample suite was collected as part of geological mapping and supporting geochemical and geochronological analysis conducted from 2013 to 2019. Zircon was obtained from these igneous rocks to determine the crystallization age for the bedrock samples. The data tables accompanying this data release report the composition of uranium (U) and thorium (Th) measured in each grain, ratios of three isotopes of lead (206Pb, 207Pb, 208Pb), two isotopes of uranium (235U and 238U), and one isotope of thorium (232Th), as well as the age of each grain, plus trace element abundances from the same ablated aliquot, including P, V, Sr, high field strength elements (HFSE), and rare earth elements (REE). Reported Hf (and Lu) isotope data includes 176Hf/177Hf, 176Lu/177Hf, and 178Hf/177Hf ratios, calculated epsilon Hf values, and age-corrected isotope ratios and epsilon values.
