Revised Sm–Nd systematics of Kambalda greenstones, Western Australia
Sm–Nd isotope systematics in mafic–ultramafic lavas from the Norseman–Wiluna greenstone belt, Western Australia, have been reinvestigated. A previous age based on mixing lavas and granites is not confirmed: instead, a Sm–Nd age of 3,262 ± 44 Myr is indicated for the lavas, 400 Myr older than intruding granites, and predating gneisses that have been proposed as basement rocks.

Abstract

Sm–Nd isotope systematics in mafic–ultramafic lavas from the Norseman–Wiluna greenstone belt, Western Australia, have been reinvestigated. A previous age based on mixing lavas and granites is not confirmed: instead, a Sm–Nd age of 3,262 ± 44 Myr is indicated for the lavas, 400 Myr older than intruding granites, and predating gneisses that have been proposed as basement rocks.
