Discussion on Rb‐Sr Isochron Ages of Granitoids in the Hengduan Mountains1
View through CrossRef
Abstract Based on the Rb‐Sr isotopic study of the granitoids in the Hengduan Mountains, the classification and geologic significance of whole‐ rock Rb‐ Sr isochrons as well as the factors influencing homogenization of the isotopic systems are discussed. Usually, there is no good linear correlation of isochrons for diorites and alkali‐rich intrusive rocks (including alkaline rock and alkalic granite). But by means of the external isochron of monominerals from the rocks, isochrons with good linear correlation as well as ages and Sr initial ratios with a high confidence can be obtained. In order to obtain a satisfactory isochron, the discriminant parameters should be calculated from the Rb / Sr ratios and estimated ages of samples. Only those that meet the requirements can be used as the Rb‐Sr isochrons. The quality of an isochron should be judged from three factors, i.e. correlation coefficient, MSWD and homogenization degree.
