would you use uranium-lead radiometric dating to finnd an igneous rocks age
An accurate radiometric date can be obtained only if the mineral remained a closed system during the entire period since its formation this is why radiometric dating can't be used with accuracy.
Time since metamorphism.
radiometric dating is base on the half life of the radioactive atoms
Radiometric dating of igneous rocks that relate to the sedimentary rock

Igneous rocks
Relative age can be determined using superposition and cross-cutting relationships. Absolute age can only be determined using radiometric dating methods, such as Rb-Sr.

They can use either radiometric dating or magnetostratigraphy.
radiometric
Radiometric dating is the principal source of information about the absolute age of rocks and other geological features, including the age of the Earth itself, and can be used to date a wide range of natural and man-made materials.
Carbon 14 dating is the best known example of radiometric dating, but there are many others. Another example of radiometric dating is the dating of the age of geological formations on earth. The oldest known rocks on the earth that have been analyzed, have been dated back some 4.404 billion years.
