  • <div>This Queensland Geological Record presents ten new Sensitive High Resolution Ion MicroProbe (SHRIMP) U–Pb zircon and monazite results obtained under the auspices of the Geological Survey of Queensland–Geoscience Australia (GSQ–GA) National Collaborative Framework (NCF) geochronology project between July 2017 and June 2018. These data were collected in support of ongoing regional mapping and geoscientific programs led by the GSQ in the Mount Isa region.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><strong>Bibliographic reference:</strong></div><div>Kositcin, N., Lewis, C.

  • <div>New Sensitive High Resolution Ion Microprobe (SHRIMP) U–Pb geochronological results for fifteen Proterozoic and late Paleozoic samples, thirteen from the Georgetown Region and two from the adjacent Cairns Region, are presented in this Record. Eleven of the samples are from cores of basement units intersected in drillholes that penetrated overlying rocks of the Karumba (Cenozoic) and Carpentaria (Mesozoic) basins. Three of these are gneisses from the undercover extension of the Yambo Subprovince (Etheridge Province) in the northeastern part of the Georgetown Region, four are of Mesoproterozoic granites from the Forsayth Subprovince (Etheridge Province) and Croydon Province farther south, and the remaining eight are from units forming part of the Carboniferous–Permian Kennedy Igneous Association, including two from surface outcrops in the Georgetown Region and two from surface outcrops in the adjacent Cairns Region.</div><div><br></div>

  • <div>This Record is the fourth of a series of reports detailing the results of U–Pb dating of samples collected during investigations of the Mary Kathleen Domain and adjacent areas of the Mount Isa Inlier in 2018–19 by the Geological Survey of Queensland and co-workers (Kositcin <em>et al</em>., 2019, 2021, Bodorkos <em>et al</em>., 2020). It presents new Sensitive High Resolution Ion Microprobe (SHRIMP) U–Pb geochronological results for five samples collected from the inlier. Two of the samples are from units in the Kalkadoon–Leichhardt Domain and the remaining three from units in the adjacent Mary Kathleen Domain (Figure i). The ages of these units are poorly constrained and various ages have been proposed for most of them by different investigators.</div><div> <b>Bibliographic Reference:</b> Kositcin, N., Bultitude, R.
