U-Pb Ages and Hf Isotopes of Detrital Zircon Grains from the Mesoproterozoic Chuanlinggou Formation in North China Craton: Implications for the Geochronology of Sedimentary Iron Deposits and Crustal Evolution

The Chuanlinggou Formation is the lower formation of the Changchengian System, and hosts sedimentary iron deposits (marine oolitic ironstones) of the North China Craton (NCC). To determine the age of the iron deposits, and provide insight into the crustal growth of the craton, laser ablation multipl...
