Data release of zircon U-Pb geochronology and whole-rock isotope geochemistry for drill core samples from Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, and Wyoming
March 29, 2024
This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release provides zircon U-Pb geochronology and whole rock isotope geochemistry for drill core samples from Montana, Nebraska, Nevada and Wyoming. The drill core samples were obtained from the USGS Core Research Center in Denver, Colorado. The samples were in order to constrain the age, provenance, metamorphic history, and geochemical character of basement terranes in the United States.

Geochemical and geochronologic evidence for a contiguous northeastern Wyoming Province
The extent and nature of the Wyoming Province, an Archean craton in southwestern Laurentia, are poorly understood due to limited exposure between spatially isolated basement-cored uplifts. This lack of exposure has led to debate about whether the northeastern Wyoming Province is underlain by contiguous Archean crust or Proterozoic rocks and suture zone associated with the Trans-Hudson orogeny.
