Closure of the Proto-Tethys Ocean and Early Paleozoic amalgamation of microcontinental blocks in East Asia

TL;DR: In this paper, the Proto-Tethys Ocean is defined as a complex complex paleo-ocean located between the Tarim-North China and the Sibumasu/Baoshan blocks, and it was opened from the rifting of the Supercontinent Rodinia and mainly closed at the end of the Early Paleozoic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Early Paleozoic polyphase metamorphism in northern Tibet, China

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the early Paleozoic polyphase tectonothermal events related to the subduction of the proto-Tethyan ocean and subsequent collisional orogeny produced two dominant metamorphic belts: the North Altun (NAT) and North Qilian (NQL) HP/LT metamorphics.
Journal ArticleDOI

The latest Neoarchean–Paleoproterozoic evolution of the Dunhuang block, eastern Tarim craton, northwestern China: Evidence from zircon U–Pb dating and Hf isotopic analyses

TL;DR: In this article, the authors carried out detailed field-based petrological and geochronological investigations on the major lithologies of the Dunhuang block, in the easternmost segment of the Tarim craton, exposing Precambrian mafic granulite and felsic gneiss.
Journal ArticleDOI

U–Pb zircon geochronology of coesite-bearing eclogites from the southern Dulan area of the North Qaidam UHP terrane, northwestern China: spatially and temporally extensive UHP metamorphism during continental subduction

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used high-resolution ion microprobe (Mass Spectrometer) and laser ablation (Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry U-Pb analyses from cathodoluminescence (CL)-dark zircon cores in a coesite-bearing eclogite yield an upper intercept age of 838 ± 50 Ma.
