Moscati, R.J., and Premo, W.R., 2022, U-Pb and Ar-Ar age data and whole rock geochemistry data of igneous and metasedimentary rocks of northeast Afghanistan (ver. 2.0, June 2024): U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P97PP5TO.

Summary

This dataset accompanies the proposed publication, 'Geochronology and geochemistry of igneous and metasedimentary rocks of northeast Afghanistan: A refinement of the timing and origin of crustal terranes', which focuses on refining the geochronology and geochemistry of these rocks during multiple time periods of accretion, regional metamorphism, and magmatic activity. The analyses were performed from September 2006 to August 2014.
