Rb – Sr System
87Rb 87Sr + e- + +
t1/2 = 5.2 1010 years = 1.42 10-11/ yr
Rb+ substitutes for K+ in the large W site of phases such as feldspar, mica, and amphibole, whereas Sr2+ substitutes for Ca2+ in feldspars. In-grown 86Sr thus sits in a site that is not only too large for it, but which may have been damaged by the decay process. As a result, Rb-Sr isochrons are relatively easily disturbed. This situation is aggravated by the fact that both Rb and Sr are relatively soluble in aqueous solutions leading to the mobility of Rb and Sr during secondary processes such as weathering and metamorphism.
Not useful in old metamorphosed rocks.

Sm - Nd System
147Sm 143Nd + 4He +
t1/2 = 1.06 1010 years = 6.54 10-12/ yr
Both Sm3+ and Nd3+ substitute for Al3+ in clinopyroxene, amphibole, and are also preferentially up taken by apatite. The Sm-Nd isotopic system is significantly more robust than the Rb/Sr system because both the parent and daughter are happy in similar crystallographic sites, and both are relatively insoluble and thus immobile.
The similar chemical properties of Sm and Nd, however, means that it is more difficult to find enough spread in the parent/daugther ratio to yield a good isochron.
143Nd = 143Ndi + 147Sm × (eλt-1)

Sm - Nd System
147Sm 143Nd + 4He +
Liquid (Sm / Nd) < Residue (Sm / Nd)
143Nd = 143Ndi + 147Sm × (eλt-1)
In contrast to the Rb/Sr system, in the Sm-Nd system partial melts have lower parent /daughter ratios and the solid residue of partial melting has higher parent daughter ratios.
Note: this is the reverse of the situation in the Rb/Sr isotopic system.

Mantle Extraction Ages:
It is important to distinguish between crystallisation age and mantle extraction age of the continental crust. This problem has been addressed by DePaolo using a combination of zircon crystallization ages and Nd model mantle extraction ages. His results indicate that 80% of the Earth's continental crust was formed by 1.6 Ga. Many younger crustal rocks must thus represent reworked older crust.

The incompatible trace element enrichment of E-MORB is associated with elevated 87Sr/86Sr and 143Nd/144Nd isotopic ratios compared to N-MORB, opposite to the correlation observed at many hot spots, such as Hawaii.

Furthermore, Th and U are lithophile and preferentially partition into large sites in accessory phases such as zircon, apatite, perovskite, and baddelyeite. Pb, on the other hand, is largely excluded from zircon and is significantly chalcophile, partitioning preferentially into sulfides. Both U and Pb are relatively easily mobilized and the use of these radiogenic isotopes as tracers is largely restricted to modern, unaltered igneous rocks. Th, on the other hand, is relatively immobile, and has been successfully used as a tracer in older metamorphosed rocks.

U – Pb Concordia Diagrams

238U 206Pb + 84He + 6e- + t1/2 = 4.468 1010 years = 1.55125 10-10/ yr
The difference in geochemical behaviour of Pb versus Th and U works to our advantage in using zircons for dating. The low levels of common Pb in zircon, combined with zircons high resistance to alteration make U-Pb isotopes in zircon an excellent geochronometer of the past.

Future Ages, Mixing Lines, & Pseudo-Isochrons?
The apparent future ages of MORB and OIB can be explained by multi-stage fractionations, but the Pb paradox remains.
The first Pb Paradox: virtually all mantle reservoirs plot to the right of the Geochron, where are the complimentary reservoirs required for mass balance?

The lavas within many OIB suites define approximately linear arrays between two chemical and isotopic components, one relatively depleted and the other relatively enriched. Originally these were thought to correlate with the MORB source and primitive mantle respectively. However, it rapidly became apparent that these linear arrays were different in different OIB suites.
![Page 44: Radiogenic Isotopes In Igneous Petrology Francis, 2013.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102818/56649dff5503460f94ae6dc2/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
There are thus many "flavours" of OIB suites, and at least five different components are required to explain them. Furthermore, there are geographic correlations in the isotopic characteristics of OIB suites. For example, the DUPAL anomaly in the south Pacific is defined by the abundance of EM II OIB suites that appears to correlate with a lower mantle seismic tomography anomaly.

Focal Zone (FOZO:
The apparent point of convergence of the linear isotopic arrays of many OIB suites, thus possibly representing a mantle component that is common to all. It has a relatively depleted composition compared to primitive mantle in terms of Sr and Nd isotopes, but moderately radiogenic Pb isotopes. It is thus not the asthenospheric mantle (DMM), and not primitive mantle. It may be the figment of a fertile imagination.
It is important to remember that not only is the identity of these different mantle components a matter of debate, there is little constraint on their physical location, They are typically hidden in the deep mantle

Open Systems: Bulk Contamination:
Two data points 1 and 2 may be related by a mixing curve between 2 end-members M and N provided the following relationship holds:
Mixing lines are hyperbolic curves whose curvature is proportional to r. The asymptotes of mixing curves with large or small r’s can be used to define some of the ratios of the unseen end-members.

Within the northern Canadian Cordillera,
there is a clear correlation between
isotopic composition and the tectonic
belt within which recent alkaline
magmas erupt that mirrors that observed
in Mesozoic granitoids and late
Cretaceous shoshonites. All the
alkaline basalts of the Omenica Belt are
have more radiogenic Sr and Pb isotopes
and less radiogenic Nd isotopes than
their equivalents in the Intermontane
Belt. This clearly indicates the
involvement of lithospheric mantle
and/or crust in their origin.

There is typically a systematic increase in 143Nd/144Nd and decrease in 87Sr/86Sr
and Pb isotopes with decreasing Si, from Hy norm basalts through to
nephelinites. The values of nephelinites approach those of MORB.
