U–Pb geochronology and Hf isotope data from the Late Cretaceous Mawat ophiolite, NE Iraq

The Mawat ophiolite, NE Iraq, is one of the Neo-Tethyan ophiolites within the Iraqi Zagros orogen. It consists of many metre-to kilometre-sized tectonic slices of serpentinized dunite, peridotite, gabbro, basaltic rocks and associated oceanic metasediments.
