Constraining the tectonic evolution of rifted continental margins by U–Pb calcite dating

Abstract We employ U–Pb calcite dating of structurally-controlled fracture fills within crystalline Caledonian basement in western Norway to reveal subtle large-scale tectonic events that affected this rifted continental margin. The ages (15 in total) fall into four distinct groups with ages mainly...
