Zircons reveal the history of fluctuations in the oxidation state of crustal magmatism and the supercontinent cycle
Zircons, a mineral nearly as old as Earth itself, crystalize when magmas (molten rocks) cool and can be found in trace quantities in magmatic rocks. The formation of magma constitutes the mountains on the Earth. Through interactions ...
