Chemical Th-U-total Pb isochron (CHIME) ages were determined on monazite, xenotime and zircon from coarse-grained leucogranite, quartzose pegmatite and residual arkose (weathered granite) of the Okuhinotsuchi granitic mass (Okuhinotsuchi Mass) in the South Kitakami terrane, Northeast Japan. Leucogranite, characterized by higher K₂O/Na₂O and lower CaO/(Na₂O+K₂O) ratios, yields latest Permian ages of 250-260 Ma for monazite and/or zircon. Some of the granite contains xenocrysts of Th-rich monazite or zircon that yields late Silurian to early Devonian ages of 400-410 Ma. Quartzose pegmatite or quartz vein, cutting in places leucogranite and rarely sediments of the Lower-Middle Silurian Okuhinotsuchi Formation, yields unequivocal CHIME ages of 240-250 Ma for Th-poor monazite, zircon and/or xenotime. Residual arkose that occurs immediately below the unconformity, is more disintegrated, altered and depleted in K₂O than leucogranite. The arkose contains Th- and U-bearing minerals with different CHIME ages: (1) both Th-rich (420 Ma) and Th-poor (260 Ma) monazites, (2) zoned xenotime grains with 410-420 Ma core mantled by 350 or 250 Ma rim, (3) euhedral ca. 250 Ma zircon, or (4) rounded inherited zircon grains of ca. 500-1000 Ma. All the CHIME age data demonstrate that the Okuhinotsuchi Mass is unlikely to be the pre-Silurian basement.<br> The CHIME geochronology also reveals that the leucogranite of the Okuhinotsuchi Mass is a remnant of the source rock for some Permian granitoid clasts in the Usuginu Conglomerate in the South Kitakami terrane, whose provenance has long been an open problem.
