Introduction

New and previously published ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar data from the Tennant, Tanami, Davenport, and northern Arunta regions complement U-Pb geochronological data, providing additional time-constraints for various styles of mineralisation, and reveal the spatial extent of low- to medium-grade thermal overprints within the craton.
