U–Pb ages of detrital zircons in Cretaceous–Paleogene/Neogene kaolins within Eastern Dahomey and Niger Delta Basins (Nigeria) as provenance indicators
Abstract Detrital zircon grains within four (4) deposits including two (2) Cretaceous and two (2) Paleogene/Neogene kaolins in Nigeria were analysed using U–Pb LA-SFICP-MS to determine their provenance. The zircon textures were dominated by xenocrystic cores and oscillatory zoning in the Cretaceous...
