concordia diagram
noun concordia diagrams
- Any of several types of diagram, used in connection with uranium–lead dating, in which each axis encodes differently sourced information about the radiometric age of the mineral being dated. The graphing of concordant U-Pb data on a concordia diagram does not provide any information that is not obvious from the individual U-Pb ages themselves. The principal value of the concordia diagram is its unique ability to yield crystallization ages from open systems.
