Sr isotopic composition and Pb-Pb age of Neoproterozoic-lower Paleozoic carbonate sequences at Salinas hill and Pie de Palo range, Western Argentina

It is weil known that isotope stratigraphy is one of the most powerful tools in Upper Precambrian to Lower Paleozoic chronostratigraphy. The Sr isotope composition of seawater for this age interval is characterized by a contm. uous .mcrease 0f 87Sr/86Sr that I.S I. nterrupted, by sharp rises, which...
