Tectonic architecture and multiple orogeny of the Qinling Orogenic Belt, Central China
TL;DR: The Qinling Orogenic Belt (QOB) as mentioned in this paper is a composite orogenic belt that witnessed four major episodes of accretion and collision between discrete continental blocks, such as the North China Block, North Qinling Block and the South China Block.

Episodic Paleoarchean-Paleoproterozoic (3.3-2.0 Ga) granitoid magmatism in Yangtze Craton, South China: Implications for late Archean tectonics
Jingliang Guo,Yuan-Bao Wu,Shan Gao,Zhenmin Jin,Keqing Zong,Zhaochu Hu,Kang Chen,Haihong Chen,Yongsheng Liu +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present petrography, geochemistry, zircon U-Pb geochronology and Lu-Hf isotopes of twelve gneissic granitoids from the Archean Kongling Terrane, including trondhjemites, biotite-granites, and two-mica granites.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors defined four lithotectonic domains: Kongling, Kunming-Hainan, Wuyi, and Coastal domains, which are characterized by isolated Archean to early Paleoproterozoic rock units and events and crop out in northern and southern South China, respectively.

Zircon U–Pb chronology, Hf isotope analysis and whole-rock geochemistry for the Neoarchean-Paleoproterozoic Yudongzi complex, northwestern margin of the Yangtze craton, China
Bo Hui,Yunpeng Dong,Yunpeng Dong,Chao Cheng,Xiaoping Long,Xiaoming Liu,Zhao Yang,Shengsi Sun,Feifei Zhang,Jan Varga +9 more
TL;DR: The Yudongzi complex was probably involved in the amalgamation of the Paleoproterozoic supercontinent Columbia, and affected by a post-collisional metamorphic event at ca. 2.80-3.10-Ga as discussed by the authors.

Chemical and isotopic systematics of oceanic basalt : implications for mantle composition and processes
TL;DR: In this article, trace-element data for mid-ocean ridge basalts and ocean island basalts are used to formulate chemical systematics for oceanic basalts, interpreted in terms of partial-melting conditions, variations in residual mineralogy, involvement of subducted sediment, recycling of oceanic lithosphere and processes within the low velocity zone.

Trace element discrimination diagrams for the tectonic interpretation of granitic rocks
TL;DR: In this article, a data bank containing over 600 high quality trace element analyses of granites from known settings was used to demonstrate using ORG-normalized geochemical patterns and element-SiO2 plots that most of these granite groups exhibit distinctive trace element characteristics.

A Guide to the Chemical Classification of the Common Volcanic Rocks
T. N. Irvine,W. R. A. Baragar +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a system was presented whereby volcanic rocks may be classified chemically as follows: Subalkaline Rocks:A.B. Tholeiitic basalt series:Tholeitic picrite-basalt; tholeiite, tholeitic andesite; dacite; rhyolite.

Geochemical discrimination of different magma series and their differentiation products using immobile elements
TL;DR: In this article, the abundance and distribution of selected minor and trace elements (Ti, Zr, Y, Nb, Ce, Ga and Sc) in fresh volcanic rocks can be used to classify the differentiation products of subalkaline and alkaline magma series in a similar manner to methods using normative or major-element indices.
