Abstract

The results of the U–Pb geochronological study of garnet from scarns of the Dashkesan deposit are reported. The first “direct” estimate of the age of the skarn formation and ore genesis for this deposit (147 ± 2 Ma) is obtained. The possibility of using the U–Pb garnet system to obtain estimates of the scarns age is shown.
