Neoproterozoic to Early Palaeozoic events in the Sierra de San Luis: Implications for the Famatinian geodynamics in the Eastern Sierras Pampeanas (Argentina)
The application of the sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe (SHRIMP) U/Pb dating technique to zircon and monazites of different rock types of the Sierra de San Luis provides an important insight into the provenance and timing of deposition of the sedimentary precursors as well as the metamorphic...
