Hi Megan, We write a paper on low temperature monazite geochronology in sandstone, temperature probably around 250C. We don’t have direct temperature estimate, but we bracketed it with data from surrounding terranes and from fluid inclusions. Attached is the paper and the supplementary data containing the monazite geochemistry. Watch out, all the cores are inherited, and so it’s PT of formation are unknown.

Natural metamorphic monazite analyses (EPMA) 2. Analyses containing Th, Si and Ca 3. Each analysis paired to either a grain temperature (e.g. Y-in-monazite), or a whole rock temperature (conventional thermobarometry or phase diagrams). This can also be a temperature that is extrapolated from other samples in a terrane. The following additional pieces of information would be useful, but are not essential: 4. Pressure conditions (grain or whole rock) 5. Whole rock composition for the sample, in particular including P, Ca, Al, Ce, Th, Y 6. The microstructural location of the grains. I would highly appreciate any contributions of datasets that fit the above criteria, or direction to where published versions of the full datasets can be found. I have a particular paucity of data from low temperature (<550 •C) and high temperature (>850 •C).
