This Record presents six previously unpublished U–Pb SHRIMP zircon geochronological results from the Aileron Province in the Northern Territory. The data was collected to investigate the timing of localised and poorly documented granulite facies high-T, low-P metamorphism across isolated outcrops in the central and western Aileron Province. The study was also designed to test the maximum deposition ages of the metasedimentary rocks across this large area, and whether the data are consistent with the samples being high-grade equivalents of the Lander Rock Formation. Bibliographic Reference: Kositcin N, and Scrimgeour IR, 2020. Summary of results: Joint NTGS–GA geochronology project: central and western Aileron Province.
