Welcome to Chronology and Chronometry Group of the Petrology and Metallogeny Department of the University of São Paulo State in Rio Claro (SP).

​

The Department has a wide-ranging program in several aspects of isotope geochemistry, including radiogenic as Rb-Sr, Sm-Nd, Rare Earth Elements, U-Th series geochronology and Low Temperature Thermochronology in apatite and zircon.

​

Research in Low Temperature Thermochronology and Isotope Geochemistry are integrated into a number of interdisciplinary areas such as igneous and metamorphic petrology, sedimentary geology, structure and tectonics, hydrogeology, economic and petroleum geology, geomorphology.

​

The aim of this webpage is to provide information about people, facilities involved in Low Temperature Thermochronology and Isotope Geochemistry.
