TLDR
The Qilian Orogen at the northern margin of the Tibetan Plateau is a type suture zone that recorded a complete history from continental breakup to ocean basin evolution, and to the ultimate continental collision in the time period from the Neoproterozoic to the Paleozoic.About:

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.

Petrogenetic implications of Ti, Zr, Y, and Nb variations in volcanic rocks
TL;DR: In this paper, a table of mineral-liquid distribution coefficients for Ti, Zr, Y, and Nb for basic, intermediate and acid melt compositions were used to interpret variations of these elements, first in basalts and second during fractional crystallization from basic to acid magmas.

Ti-V plots and the petrogenesis of modern and ophiolitic lavas
TL;DR: In this article, the authors applied the Ti/V plot to published data on ophiolites from a variety of postulated settings and in general supported the conclusions of previous investigators.
