Research Abstract

Shock-recovery and annealing experiments on basalt-baddeleyite mixtures were undertaken to evaluate shock effects on U-Pb systematics of baddeleyite. Complete radiogenic lead loss due to shock metamorphism and subsequent annealing was not observed in the baddeleyites studied here. In order to address the timescale over which Mars was geologically active, we have undertaken U-Pb studies on baddeleyite in the Roberts Massif 04261 shergottite. In situ U-Th-Pb isotopic analyses of baddeleyite yield a young 238U-206Pb age of ~200 Ma. The present results imply that Martian magma was still forming only 200 Ma ago, and that Mars had been geologically active until the recent past. The present results confirm the previous Rb-Sr, Sm-Nd and Lu-Hf systematics but conflict with the Pb-Pb ages of 4.1 Ga for shergottites by the Lyon group, possibly due to Martian crustal component(s) which might have been incorporated into constituent phases of shergottites during shock metamorphism.
