This thermochronological dataset is a collection of apatite fission-track (AFT), apatite (U-Th)/He (AHe), and zircon (U-Th)/He (ZHe) data, eight time-temperature inverse model files (.hft), created and editable with the HeFTy Software v2.1.7 (Ketcham, 2005, 2024; Ketcham et al., 2007). AFT samples were processed by the Fission-Track Laboratory at the University of Innsbruck. AHe and ZHe data were processed by the Low-T Geochronology Lab at the University of Göttingen. The time-temperature models contain AFT data (grain ages, track lengths, dpar), AHe (AHe) data (age, radius, U-Th-Sm contents), and all necessary sample processing information required for the modelling. All AFT and AHe data have been obtained from rock samples along a N-S transect across the Trento Platform in the eastern Southern Alps. The dataset has been used to examine sedimentation and exhumation dynamics related to the Mesozoic geodynamic setting of northern Adria and Cenozoic orogenic events in the eastern Southern Alps. The results are provided by Klotz et al. (2025).
We present a 3-D lithospheric-scale data-constrained structural model covering the area of North Patagonian Massif Plateau (NPM) and its surroundings. These data are supplementary material to “Lithospheric 3D gravity modelling using upper-mantle density constraints: Towards a characterization of the crustal configuration in the North Patagonian Massif area, Argentina” (Gómez Dacal et al. 2017). The North Patagonian Massif (NPM), in central Argentina, includes a plateau of an average altitude of 1200 m.a.s.l. mostly surrounded by basins that stand between 500 to 700 m below it. Geological observations and previous works indicate that the present-day elevation of the plateau was reached in the Paleogene by a sudden uplift that did not involve noticeable deformation. To gain insight into the causes of the uplift and the geodynamic development of the area, it is necessary to characterize the present-day configuration of the lithosphere.
Sanukitoids, also referred to as high-Mg diorites, are a distinctive type of igneous rock from the late Archean-early Proterozoic, and are characterised by enrichment in both compatible elements (e.g. Mg, Ni, Cr) and incompatible elements (e.g. Ba, Sr, light rare earth elements). Their geochemistry is typically interpreted as recording petrogenesis of their parental magmas via interaction between mantle peridotite and recycled crust-derived component (e.g. metabasite melts, sediment melts, aqueous fluids), and is often considered to be "transitional" between that of Archean sodic tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG) suites and post-Archean potassic granites. This dataset presents a global compilation of all Archean-Paleoproterozoic rocks that have been described as "sanukitoid" in published literature, and consists of over 3600 individual samples. Whole rock major and trace element concentrations, radiogenic isotope compositions and stable isotope compositions are compiled in the dataset alongside reported magmatic ages of the samples. The dataset is provided both as an Excel workbook divided by craton (file: 2025-003_Spencer-et-al_Sanukitoid-Compilation.xlsx) and as a single CSV file (file: 2025-003_Spencer-et-al_Sanukitoid-Compilation.csv). Sanukitoid magmatism has been described on almost every Archean craton globally. Most reported sanukitoid magmatism occurred during the late Mesoarchean-Neoarchean (2.95 - 2.5 Ga), with another peak in sanukitoid magmatism in the mid-Paleoproterozoic (2.2 - 2.0 Ga). Older sanukitoid occurrences dating back to the Paleoarchean (>3.2 Ga) are also described in the literature.
The dataset contains full 40Ar/39Ar geochronological data completed by multi-collector noble-gas mass spectrometry using the laser total fusion technique on sanidine separated from the Drachenfels trachyte (Drachenfels, Bad Godesberg, Germany). The Drachenfels sanidine represents a useful intra-laboratory reference material for laser work. The purpose of the dataset is to share updated intercalibration data for the intra-laboratory Drachenfels sanidine, relative to the widespread fluence monitors Alder Creek sanidine and Fish Canyon sanidine, that can be used in future 40Ar/39Ar geochronological studies. W. McIntosh (New Mexico Geochronology Research Laboratory, Socorro, NM), P. Renne (Berkeley Geochronology Center, Berkeley, CA) and J.R. Wijbrans (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, NL) kindly provided splits of FCs, ACs and DRA1, respectively. The Ar laserprobe facility was realized with the financial support of CNR. The CO2 laser system was acquired within the PNRR – Mission 4, “Education and Research” - Component 2, “From research to business” - Investment line 3.1, “Fund for the creation of an integrated system of research and innovation infrastructures” - Project IR0000025 MEET.
A compilation of 39,070 published radiometric dates for igneous rocks from the South American Andes and adjacent parts of South America have been tabulated for access by researchers via GEOROC Expert Datasets. The compilation exists as a spreadsheet for access via MS Excel, Google Sheets, and other spreadsheet applications. Initial igneous compilations were utilized in two publications by the author, Pilger (1981, 1984). The compilations have been added to in subsequent years with the metamorphic and sedimentary compilations separated in the last few years. Locations in latitude and longitude are largely taken from the original source, if provided, with UTM locations maintained and converted; in some cases, sample locations were digitized from electronic maps if coordinates were otherwise not available. Analytical results are not included to prevent the files from becoming too large. The existing compilation incorporates compilations by other workers in smaller regions of the Andes. References to original and compilation sources are included. While I am updating reconstructions of the South American and Nazca/Farallon plates, incorporating recent studies in the three oceans, for comparison with the igneous dates for the past 80 m. y., it is hoped that the spreadsheets will be of value to other workers. Reliability: In most cases the data have been copy/pasted from published or appendix tables. In a few cases, the location has been digitized from published maps; the (equatorial equidistant) maps were copied into Google Earth and positioned according to indicated coordinates, with locations digitized and copied/pasted into the spreadsheet. (It is possible that published maps are conventional Mercator-based, even if not so identified, rather than either equatorial equidistant or Universal Transverse Mercator; this can be a source of error in location. For UTMs, the errors should be minor.) Duplicates are largely recognized by equivalent IDs, dates, and uncertainties. Where primary sources have been accessed, duplicate data points in compilations are deleted. (Analytic data are NOT included.) This compilation is part of a series. Companion compilations of radiometric dates from sedimentary and metamorphic rocks are available at https://doi.org/10.5880/digis.e.2023.006 and https://doi.org/10.5880/digis.e.2023.007, respectively.
The dataset presented in this compilation provides the input data used for the geological interpretation and for the model parameterization (Norden et al., 2022) of a 3D seismic survey in the area of the geothermal research platform Groß Schönebeck (carried out in 2017; Krawczyk et al., 2019), focussing on the deep Permo-Carboniferous geothermal targets. The geothermal research platform Groß Schönebeck is located about 50 km north of Berlin, on the southern edge of the Northeast German Basin, and is equipped with two deep wells, the E GrSk 3/90 and Gt GrSk 4/05 boreholes. In this data compilation we provide general data on the location of the boreholes and data on the applied methods and the interpretation of petrophysical properties (density, porosity, permeability, thermal properties) obtained by core analysis and well-log interpretation. Because cores were available for the E GrSk 3/90 borehole only, most of the data is referring to the borehole that was drilled more or less vertically. The other borehole (Gt GrSk 4/05) is a deviated well, drilled as a geothermal production well. Further on, we provide the main interpreted structural reflector horizons of the geological model from surface to the assumed top of sedimentary Carboniferous (for discussion of the uncertainty of this boundary please consider the comments in Norden et al., 2022) and the horizons and 3D grid properties of a parameterized simulation grid for the deep geothermal target (sedimentary Rotliegend and Permo-Carboniferous volcanic rocks).
Tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG) suites are the main constituent of Archean (4-2.5 Ga) continental crust. High-Sr TTGs are a subgroup of "high-pressure" TTGs characterised by very high Sr concentrations (>500 ppm, but often >700 ppm) and Sr/Y (>100), in addition to K2O/N2O<0.5, Yb<0.4 ppm and La/Yb>60 at SiO2≈70 wt%. High-Sr TTGs may have formed via fractional crystallisation of metasomatised mantle-derived sanukitoid magmas, in contrast to the dominant petrogenetic model for "high-pressure" TTGs involving metabasite partial melting at pressures >2 GPa. This dataset presents a compilation of global high-Sr TTG occurrences identified from published literature, and contains their compiled major and trace element and Nd isotope compositions.
We report the titanium (Ti) stable isotope compositions (δ49Ti) of Neoarchean (ca. 2700-2650 Ma) tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG) suites from the Eastern Goldfields Superterrane, Yilgarn Craton. Samples were selected to cover the full range of trace element compositions exhibited by TTGs, and are primarily from the Kalgoorlie-Kambalda region of the Kalgoorlie Terrane. Ti stable isotope compositions were measured using multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (MC-ICP-MS) at the Cardiff Earth Laboratory for Trace Element and Isotope Chemistry (CELTIC), Cardiff University. The Ti isotope compositions of these samples (file: 2025-009_Spencer-et-al_Ti-Isotope-Data.xlsx) are presented alongside a compilation of their major and trace element concentrations (file: 2025-009_Spencer-et-al_Compiled-Isotope-Major-Trace-Element-Data.xlsx) taken from the Western Australian Geochemistry Database (WACHEM). Most TTG samples have δ49Ti values between 0.2 to 0.6‰ that increase with SiO2 content, while two highly evolved TTGs have δ49Ti > 1‰. At SiO2 ≈ 70 wt% the different TTG geochemical groups display distinct Ti isotope compositions.
