[HTML][HTML] Syncing fault rock clocks: Direct comparison of U-Pb carbonate and K-Ar illite fault dating methods
The timing of slip on brittle faults in Earth's upper crust is difficult to constrain, and direct
radiometric dating of fault-generated materials is the most explicit approach. Here we make …
