Calcite veins are a common product of hydrothermal fluid circulation. To model whether the reconstructed temperatures represent calcite precipitation or closed-system resetting, the precipitation age must be known. LA-ICP-MS U—Pb dating of calcite is a recently developed approach to direct dating of calcite and can provide precipitation ages for modelling clumped-isotope systematics in calcite veins.

Samples from all three localities yielded precipitation temperatures of ca. Modelling from the dated samples enabled confident interpretation that no closed-system resetting had occurred in these samples. However, the lack of a precipitation age from the third location meant that a range of possible thermal histories had to be modelled meaning that confidence that resetting had not occurred was lower.

This highlights the importance of coupling clumped-isotope thermometry and LA-ICP-MS U—Pb calcite dating in determining the temperature of hydrothermal fluids recorded in calcite veins. This paired approach is shown to be robust in constraining the timing and precipitation temperature of calcite formation, and thus for tracking hydrothermal processes. Investigation of their isotope systematics using recent proxies such as clumped-isotope palaeothermometry e.

Clumped-isotope thermometry determines the precipitation temperature of carbonate minerals such as calcite e. It utilises the temperature dependence of the formation of the bond between two rare heavy isotopes 13 C and 18 O within the carbonate anion; the abundance of anions with 13 C— 18 O bonds is proportional to mineral precipitation temperature e. In a solid carbonate mineral, such as calcite, isotope exchange ceases at the time of crystallisation.
