Abstract/NotesAbstractThe Bwlch y Cywion microgranite intrudes an Ordovician sedimentary sequence in northeast Snowdonia, North Wales. Its age is recorded by hornfelses within its metamorphic aureole which give an Ordovician age of 454 ± 20 Ma. The whole-rock Rb–Sr isotope systems of the intrusion, however, and of an associated ash-flow tuff and a rhyolite of the Llewelyn Volcanic Group (Caradoc), were reset during low-grade metamorphism and give Devonian ages of 392±11 Ma, 392±5 Ma, and 405 ± 6 Ma, respectively.
