A metapelite from the easternmost Wyoming craton (Black Hills, South Dakota) has been analyzed by microstructural methods to unravel polyphase deformational history associated with 1800.1700 Ma assembly of southern Laurentia. Three deformational fabrics are recognized in oriented thin sections: an ENE-trending S 1  fabric, preserved as oblique inclusion trails in garnet porphyroblasts; a NNWtrending S 2  fabric, preserved as microlithons in the rock matrix; and a flattening fabric, S 3 , which transposed S 1 -S 2  and dominates the matrix. A complex monazite porphyroblast has been analyzed in situ with the electron microprobe (Ultrachron) to constrain the timing of S 1 -S 3  fabric formation associated with monazite growth. The core of this grain uniquely preserves the S 1 -S 2  fabrics as sigmoidal inclusion trails. The mean total-Pb age of this domain is 1750 ± 10 Ma (all dates reported at 95% confidence; n = 39 spots), which is equivalent to the published  207 Pb/ 206 Pb age for the same domain. These results validate the total-Pb dating method in general and the Ultrachron in particular, for reliable age determination in low-Th monazite, and are interpreted as 1750 Ma minimum ages for the S 1 -S 2  fabrics and sequential, D 1 -D 2  collisional events that imposed them (~N-directed arc accretion and ~E-W continental collision, respectively). A higher-Th,Y rim of this same .Rosetta. grain truncates the S 1 -S 2  sigmoid, and is associated with resorption textures in garnet porphyroblasts, coupled release of Y, and an S 3  fabric that pervasively overprinted S 1 -S 2  in the rock matrix. The mean Ultrachron date of this domain is 1692 ± 5 Ma (n = 17 spots), which is slightly younger that the published isotopic age for all monazite rims combined. These results support a ~1715.1690 Ma timeframe for localized doming (D 3 ) related to granite magmatism, the onset of which has been dated independently at 1715 ± 3 Ma. The timing of post-D 3  cooling through 350 and 300 °C is constrained by  40 Ar/ 39 Ar dates of ~1610 and ~1480 Ma obtained for separates of D 3  matrix muscovite and biotite, respectively, which are interpreted as closure ages.
