The origin and pre-Cenozoic evolution of the Tibetan Plateau

Di-Cheng Zhu, +7 more
- 01 May 2013 - 
TL;DR: This paper reviewed and reevaluated these hypotheses in light of new data from Tibet including the distribution of major tectonic boundaries and suture zones, basement rocks and their sedimentary covers, magmatic suites, and detrital zircon constraints from Paleozoic metasedimentary rocks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ophiolite genesis and global tectonics: Geochemical and tectonic fingerprinting of ancient oceanic lithosphere

Yildirim Dilek, +1 more
- 01 Mar 2011 - 
TL;DR: A review of these ideas as well as a new classification of ophiolites, incorporating the diversity in their structural architecture and geochemical signatures that results from variations in petrological, geochemical, and tectonic processes during formation in different geodynamic settings is presented in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ophiolites and Their Origins

Yildirim Dilek, +1 more
- 01 Apr 2014 - 
TL;DR: Ophiolites are suites of temporally and spatially associated ultramafic, mafic and felsic rocks that are interpreted to be remnants of ancient oceanic crust and upper mantle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lhasa terrane in southern Tibet came from Australia

Di-Cheng Zhu, +6 more
- 01 Aug 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, detrital zircons from the Lhasa terrane (Tibet) were found to have a distinctive age population of ca. 1170 Ma with a similar Hf (t) range to those from the western Qiangtang and Tethyan Himalaya terranes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Geochemical and Sr–Nd–Pb–O isotopic compositions of the post-collisional ultrapotassic magmatism in SW Tibet: Petrogenesis and implications for India intra-continental subduction beneath southern Tibet

Zhidan Zhao, +11 more
- 01 Nov 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a large number of ultrapotassic lavas with high light rare earth element (LREE) and large ion lithophile element (LILE) concentrations, but are low in high field strength elements (HFSE).
