Abstract

We have developed U-series disequilibrium dating methods for monazite as a Th-bearing mineral occurring in Quaternary volcanic rocks to elucidate magmatic processes. For accurate age determinations on Th-bearing minerals, potential interferences of polyatomic ions derived from sample matrices and background counts from 232Th should be removed. These interferences can be reduced by utilizing ICP-MS/MS. In this study, analytical accuracy and precision in measurements of 230Th and 226Ra are evaluated through the analysis of monazite using multiple-spot laser ablation ICP-MS/MS.
