Detrital apatite Lu-Hf and U-Pb geochronology applied to the southwestern Siberian margin

First published: 03 February 2022Apatite is increasingly used in sedimentary provenance studies. However, detrital apatite U–Pb geochronology can be challenging due to the presence of non-radiogenic Pb, its intermediate closure temperature (~350–550°C) and/or age-resetting by metamorphic/metasomatic processes. The Lu–Hf system in apatite has a higher closure temperature (~675–750°C) and is, therefore, more robust to thermal resetting. Here we present the first detrital apatite Lu–Hf age spectra. We have developed a laserablation Lu–Hf dating technique, using reaction-cell mass spectrometry, that allows rapid cost-effective analysis, required for detrital apatite studies. The method is best suited to Precambrian detritus, permitting greater radiogenic Hf ingrowth. Using samples from Siberia, we demonstrate: (1) excellent correlations between U–Pb and Lu– Hf dates for apatites from igneous protoliths; and (2) that Lu–Hf dating can detect primary age information in metamorphic grains. Hence, when used in tandem with U–Pb zircon and apatite geochronology, Lu–Hf apatite dating provides a powerful new tool for provenance studies.Stijn Glorie, Jack Gillespie, Alexander Simpson, Sarah Gilbert, Andrei Khudoley, Nadezhda Priyatkina, Martin Hand, Christopher L.

A preliminary reassessment of the Siberian cratonic basement with new U-Pb-Hf detrital zircon data

New and compiled U-Pb-Hf detrital zircon data from provincial Meso- to Neoproterozoic sedimentary basins characterize the buried crust of the Siberian cratonic basement. Along the northwestern Siberian cratonic margin (Turukhansk uplift, Yenisei Ridge) the basins accumulated predominantly 2.6–2.5 Ga zircons with εHf (T) values of +3 to −7, and 1.9–1.85 Ga zircons, characterized by εHf (T) values of −10 to +10. In the southwestern part of the craton (Prisayan uplift), similar 1.9–1.85 Ga and older Archean zircons are common, whereas in the eastern part older Paleoproterozoic zircons of 2.15–1.95 Ga with minimum εHf (T) values of −25 are widespread. The unique detrital age spectra for various parts of the craton provide a basis for unravelling the age of buried domains of the Siberian craton. A correlation of isotopic records from different domains, combined with geological evidence, may suggest that the craton consists of (1) the Archean unit, younging toward the present N-W direction and (2) three N-S-trending Paleoproterozoic collisional belts, extending along its western (the Angara belt) and eastern (the Hapschan belt) margins, and in the middle of the craton (the Magan belt). The proposed structural and isotopic domains of the Siberian craton compare well with those of northern Laurentia, providing a new evidence for the two cratons were connected within the Nuna supercontinent

Higher Pedagogical Education for Students with Disabilities: an Accessible Environment of Professionalization

The article deals with the problem of professional pedagogical preparation of students with disabilities. The basis for the implementation of the educational standard for students with disabilities is the individualization of learning. Psychological support of educational process for people with disabilities involves psycho-diagnostics, individualized psycho-correction, a variety of training, psychological counseling.В статье рассматривается проблема профессиональной педагогической подготовки студентов, имеющих ограничения в состоянии здоровья. Основой реализации ФГОС для студентов с ОВЗ выступает индивидуализация обучения на основе адаптированных программ дисциплин. Психологическая поддержка образовательного процесса для лиц с ОВЗ предполагает психодиагностику, индивидуализированную психокоррекцию, разнообразные тренинги, психологическое консультирование
