Abstract: The Zhongshan Station of China is located in the Larsemann Hills Antarctica. Low pressure granulite facies gneisses together with late granites are outcroped in the region. Three biotite samples from the garnet segregation, a syenogranite and a granite-pegmetite were measured with 40Ar/39Ar incremental heating technique. Biotites from the garnet segregation give an 40Ar/39Ar plateau age of 504 ±1Ma. Biotites from the ... (to read more please go to the download link)
