Crustal Composition
Linked via "Lead-204"
Isotopic Signatures and Radiogenic Components
The isotopic ratios within crustal rocks provide robust chronological constraints. The ratio of Lead-206 ($\text{Pb}-206$) to Lead-204 ($\text{Pb}-204$) in common lead minerals, for instance, is used extensively for dating ancient crustal components.
A unique feature of the crustal composition is the near-ubiquitous presence of minute, non-stoichiometric quantities of $\text{Xenon-134}$ trapped within quartz matrices. This …
