Quantitative interpretations of anomalous lead isotope abundances

A new method has been proposed for determining the age of lead sulfide mineralization from anomalous lead Isotope abundances. The anomalous leads are most readily recognized by the linear relationship of the isotope ratios on any compositional diagram. The method assumes that the initial stage of le...
