Thinning and Heating of Laramide Continental Lower Crust Recorded by Zircon Petrochronology

Abstract Zircon grains from the metasedimentary lower crust of the Rio Grande Rift, New Mexico, preserve a metamorphic record of the transition from Laramide compression to Eocene extension. Zircon U‐Pb isotopes and trace‐element concentrations from five two‐pyroxene metaigneous granulite xenoliths...
