Popis: It is proved that dating high-grade metamorphism events through dating of migmatites is quite efficient. Our investigation has made it possible to identify two events of 2500 and 2700 Ma and to estimate the age of an igneous protolith for both tonalite gneiss, the most ancient in the Belomorian belt, and related metagabbroid. Based on the upper crossing of the concordia and the discordia, the zircon core age is estimated at 2796 ± 63 Ma; this age is slightly different from that of a growth rim of rhythmically zoned prismatic zircon (2816 ± 110 Ma). A linear approximation of all measured points yields an upper crossing of 2803 ± 55 Ma. The error of these estimates is high for quite understandable reasons, and yet it should be taken into account when analyzing the geodynamic development regimes of Neo-Archaean endogenic processes.
