Journal ArticleDOI
Isotopic study of the Manaslu granite (Himalaya, Nepal): inferences on the age and source of Himalayan leucogranites
TL;DR: A detailed isotopic study of the Manaslu leucogranite was carried out as discussed by the authors, and a U-Pb age of 25 Ma and a whole rock Rb-Sr age isochron of 18 Ma were obtained, suggesting that the magmatic activity lasted at least 7 Ma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Manaslu leucogranite: A collision signature of the Himalaya: A model for its genesis and emplacement
TL;DR: The Manaslu pluton is one of 10 leucogranites that formed in the overthrusted Higher Himalaya after the Indo-Eurasian collision.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Four Plutonic Belts of the Transhimalaya-Himalaya: a Chemical, Mineralogical, Isotopic, and Chronological Synthesis along a Tibet-Nepal Section
Journal ArticleDOI
Exhumation, crustal deformation, and thermal structure of the Nepal Himalaya derived from the inversion of thermochronological and thermobarometric data and modeling of the topography

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors run 3D models by coupling PECUBE with a landscape evolution model (CASCADE) and show that lateral variations of the kinematics of crustal deformation and exhumation are likely.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, a Th-Pb ion microprobe dating of monazite was used to determine the age of the Manaslu granite in the High Himalayan leucogranite belt.
