Nine 40Ar/39Ar dates from Carboniferous igneous rocks of the Midland Valley of Scotland

Monaghan, A.A.; Browne, M.A.E.. 2010 Nine 40Ar/39Ar dates from Carboniferous igneous rocks of the Midland Valley of Scotland. British Geological Survey, 41pp. (OR/10/065) (Unpublished)

Abstract

This report describes the location and character of ten Carboniferous-Permian igneous rock
samples from the Midland Valley of Scotland and the results of 40Ar/39Ar step-heating
experiments on nine of the samples to obtain the radiometric age of eruption or emplacement of
the rock. The quality of the new radiometric ages are discussed along with their integration with
the chronostratigraphy, lithostratigraphy and biostratigraphy of the Midland Valley of Scotland.
