We report zircon U\u2013Pb dates from two suevite and two syenite samples collected from the Slate Islands. Plagioclase 40Ar\/39Ar dates were also obtained from one of the samples. The plagioclase and most zircon dates record pre-impact ages with links to known tectonic events, including those associated with the assembly of the Superior Craton at approximately 2700\u2009Ma. However, Neoarchean zircon grains appear to be reset at 456.1\u2009\u00b1\u20096.9\u2009Ma (\u00b12\u03c3) based on the lower intercept of discordia for all dated samples. The date overlaps its previously accepted age of 450\u2009Ma and would be 2\u201319\u2009million years following the parent asteroid breakup if related to the OME.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Andrew F.
