Abstract
Fission track study has been conducted on the miarolitic garnet from Zhangzhou Igneous Complex. It is found that the garnet is of Mn- and Fe-rich type; its uranium concentration ranges from 0.2 to 0.8 μg/g, with an average of 0.7 μg/g; fission track age of the garnet is 73.4±2.8 Ma; and induced fission track length and spontaneous fission track length are 11.5±0.7 μm and 11.0μ0.8 μm, respectively. These data were used to constrain evolution of the granite body. © 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
