文摘The base of the ICS(International Commission on Stratigraphy)Geological Time Scale was ratified in 2022 by defining a new Global Stratigraphic Standard Age(GSSA)for the lower boundary of the Hadean Eon(formerly 4000–3600 Ma);the age of the Solar System based on the oldest solids,calcium-aluminium inclusions(CAIs),generated in the protoplanetary disk.The formal GSSA for the Hadean base is the oldest reliable,weighted mean Ucorrected Pb–Pb age of 4567.30±0.16 Ma obtained for CAIs in primitive meteorites Allende and Efremovka.This age is supported by the 4568–4567 Ma U-corrected Pb–Pb ages of chondrules in Northwest African meteorites.The boundary sets an upper lifetime for the protoplanetary disk and timing of planet formation.
