Age of crustal melting, emplacement and exhumation history of the Shivling leucogranite, Garhwal Himalaya
We report a U-Pb monazite age of 23.0 ± 0.2 Ma for the Shivling leucogranite, a tourmaline + muscovite ± biotite leucogranite at the top of the High Himalayan slab in the Garhwal Himalaya, north India. The Shivling-Bhagirathi leucogranite is a viscous near-minimum melt, emplaced as a foliation paral...
