Zircon age determinations for the Ladakh batholith at ...
The Ladakh batholith is part of the > 2500 km long Trans-himalayan batholith that forms the southern margin of the Asian plate and is unconformably overlain by the post-collision Indus Molasse Group sedimentary rocks.We present new U–Pb ID-TIMS zircon ages from a host hornblende-bearing granodiorite (57.7 ± 0.2 Ma) and a later intrusive leucocratic granite dyke (47.1 ± 0.1 Ma) from the ...
