Abstract
We have been the first to study in situ the U–Pb isotopic system of aeschynite identified in the gold-bearing magnetite–chlorite–dolomite rocks of the Karabash serpentine massif in the Southern Urals. In the concordia diagram, the U–Pb LA–ICP–MS data on aeschynite are characterized by a considerable discordance, which is consistent with the regression line, the lower crossing of which with the concordia corresponds to an age of 298 ± 18 Ma, whereas the figurative ellipses of coexisting monazite reveal an almost concordant cluster corresponding to the U–Pb age of 317.3 ± 3.3 Ma. It has been established that the closure temperature of the aeschynite system is lower than that of the coexisting monazite.
