Mafic granulites (metamorphosed tholeite-komatiite volcanic rocks) represent the inclusions in gneissenderbite of the Bug complex (southwest of the Ukrainian shield). The studied mafic inclusion has two zircon generations of magmatic origin that yield, respectively, SHRIMP zircon U–Pb ages of 3628±58 Ma and 2845±65 Ma. The first age is the oldest date the earliest stage of basic magmatism on the Ukrainian shield. The age of the second zircon is interpreted as a result of partial melting, synchronous with the metamorphism in the area.
