RT Journal Article T1 Datación Sm-Nd del metamorfismo en ía Sierra de las Imanas (Sierras Pampeanas Occidentales, Argentina) T1 Sm-Nd dating of metamorphism of the Sierra de las Imanas (Sierras Pampeanas Occidentales, Argentina) A1 Galindo, Carmen A1 Murra, J. A1 Baldo, Edgardo G. A1 Casquet Martín, César A1 Rapela, C. A1 Pankhurst, R. J. A1 Dahlquist, J. A. AB Sm-Nd garnet geochronology of a migmatite gneiss from the Sierra de las Imanas (Western Sierras Pampeanas) has provided a peak metamorphic age of 464.6 ± 4.5 Ma, i.e., Middle Ordovician, corresponding to the Famatinian orogeny of Western Argentina This age agrees with metamorphic ages obtained in nearby areas by U-Pb SHRIMP dating of zircon overgrowths. This coincidence confirms the reliability of the Sm-Nd garnet chronometer in the study of metamorphic terranes. A Proterozoic Toxt age of 1628 Ma suggests the involvement of an old recycled crustal component in the sedimentary protolith of the migmatite PB Sociedad Geológica de España YR 2003 FD 2003 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10272/8980 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10272/8980 LA spa DS Repositorio Institucional de la Universidad de Huelva RD 14 jul 2026
