Rare earth elements and fractionation of Zr-Hf and Y-Ho: implication to petrogenesis of idanre granite, Nigeria by Olagoke, Akinola O., Azman A. Ghani, Elvaene James

“…Idanre area which is situated within the Nigerian shield is affected by orogenic activities accompanied by emplacement of Pan-African granitoids. This paper presents a new information on geochemical behaviour of Rare Earth Elements (REEs) and High Field Strength Elements (HFSEs) Zr-Hf and Y-Ho that can explain post magmatic processes relating to the origin and evolution of the Idanre granite. …”
