Qian Liu,Toshiaki Tsunogae,Guochun Zhao,Sam Uthup,Kazuki Takahashi,Jin Yao,Yu Zhong Wu,Yigui Han,Keisuke Ikehata +8 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the early Cambrian metamorphism of the Altyn Tagh metamorphic rocks in the southeastern Tarim craton and found that these metamorphics underwent rapid decompression starting at P-T conditions of <495 °C and <9.6 kbar during exhumation.

Partial melting of subducted continental crust during the exhumation: Insights from Palaeozoic granitic rocks in South Altyn, western China
Long Tian,Lei Kang,Liang Liu,Danling Chen,Chao Wang,Yuting Cao,Yongsheng Gai,Tuoi Phuc Thanh Ma +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper , four granitic rocks were collected from Bashenwake located in eastern South Altyn (SA) and the ages of the garnet-bearing alkali-feldspar granite (GAFG), garnetbearing granitic gneiss (GGG), alkyl-felspar granite and syenogranite (SG) are 458.0 ± 4.9 Ma, respectively.
