Abstract

The early Palaeozoic granitogneiss association in the Chu Lai - Kham Duc area (Quang Nam) is a large area of hundreds of km2, along southern of the East – West ductile deformation zones (Tam Ky – Phuoc Son fault zone), which is studied in detail in different geologic maps scales by the geologists, which is named Chu Lai complex. The five samples studied in detail are composed mainly of granitogneiss and biotite gneiss from the Chu Lai - Kham Duc area. The samples were crushed and large zircons were extracted. The in-situ zircon U–Pb geochronology was conducted on five samples (60 zircons in total) of age between 444 Ma and 426 Ma. These ages indicated the prolonged magmatic – tectonic period between the late Ordovician and middle Silurian in Kon Tum massif.
