Journal ArticleDOI
Palaeozoic tectonics and evolutionary history of the Qinling orogen: Evidence from geochemistry and geochronology of ophiolite and related volcanic rocks
TL;DR: In this paper, the Shangdan and Erlangping ophiolitic and subduction-related volcanic melange along the Qinling orogenic belt is studied. But the authors focus on the Shangdian orogen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Subduction and accretionary tectonics of the East Kunlun orogen, western segment of the Central China Orogenic System
Yunpeng Dong,Yunpeng Dong,Dengfeng He,Shengsi Sun,Xiaoming Liu,Xiaohu Zhou,Feifei Zhang,Zhao Yang,Bin Cheng,Guochun Zhao,Guochun Zhao,Jianhua Li +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided an overview of the composition, nature and ages of the principal tectonic elements, including ophiolitic melanges and related volcanic rocks, intrusive plutons and sedimentary cover sequences in the East Kunlun Orogenic Belt (E-KOB).
Journal ArticleDOI
Propagation tectonics and multiple accretionary processes of the Qinling Orogen
Yunpeng Dong,Xiaoning Zhang,Xiaoming Liu,Wei Li,Qing Chen,Guowei Zhang,Hong-Fu Zhang,Zhao Yang,Shengsi Sun,Feifei Zhang +9 more
TL;DR: According to the petrology, geochemistry and geochronology of ophiolitic melanges and related magmatic rocks, as well as the features of sedimentary units, the authors think that the North China Block, the North Qinling Belt and the South China Block were originally independent continental units.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neoproterozoic subduction tectonics of the northwestern Yangtze Block in South China: Constrains from zircon U–Pb geochronology and geochemistry of mafic intrusions in the Hannan Massif
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the petrology, geochemistry and zircon U-Pb geochronology of these intrusions, which were characterized by enrichment of LILE and highly differentiated HFSE patterns, suggesting their deviation from an OIB mantle source.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mesozoic intracontinental orogeny in the Qinling Mountains, central China
Yunpeng Dong,Zhao Yang,Xiaoming Liu,Shengsi Sun,Wei Li,Bin Cheng,Feifei Zhang,Xiaoning Zhang,Dengfeng He,Guowei Zhang +9 more
TL;DR: The Qinling Orogenic belt has been well documented that it was formed by multiple steps of convergence and subsequent collision between the North China and South China Blocks during Paleozoic and Late Triassic times as mentioned in this paper.
