Research Abstract

We developed the age method using uraninite and thorite in granitic rocks. And then we analyzed many radiogenic minerals in the granitic rocks in the Japanese Islands. The age results show that the age is different from region to region. Northern Kyushu and Tohoku region were especially analyzed in detail.
