New SHRIMP U-Pb zircon ages from the Captains Flat area, eastern Lachlan Orogen, New South Wales: July 2012-June 2013

Created 17/10/2025

Updated 17/10/2025

This Record presents new zircon U-Pb geochronological data, obtained using a Sensitive High Resolution Ion MicroProbe (SHRIMP), and thin section descriptions for four samples of plutonic and sedimentary rocks from the Captains Flat 1:50, 000 special map sheet, Eastern Lachlan Orogen, New South Wales. The work was carried out under the auspices of the National Geoscience Accord, as a component of the collaborative Geochronology Project between the Geological Survey of New South Wales (GSNSW) and Geoscience Australia (GA) during the reporting periods 2012 and 2013. The four samples (Table 1.1 and Figure 1.1) were collected from CANBERRA (small and large capitals refer to map sheet names in the 1:100 000 and 1:250 000 Topographic Series respectively); one sample from CANBERRA (northcentral CANBERRA), two from MICHELAGO (southcentral CANBERRA) and one from ARALUEN (southcentral CANBERRA).
