Many large porphyry Cu-Au deposits are connected to adakitic rocks known to be closely
associated with ridge subduction. For example, there are several subducting ridges along the …

Since the pioneer wide-angle seismic profile along the Yadong–Gulu rift acquired in 1974
by the ex-Institute of Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), several research …

This paper presents a set of new SHRIMP zircon U–Pb geochronological, elemental and Sr–Nd–Pb
isotopic data for the Wusu and Yaxuanqiao basaltic rocks (the Mojiang area) along …

The Jiapigou area, at the northeastern corner of the North China Craton (NCC), is one of the
most important gold-producing areas in China. It was responsible for nearly half of China's …

In eastern China Palaeozoic kimberlites and Cenozoic basalts have been erupted through
the same Archaean crust, thus providing deep probes of the cratonic lower lithosphere over a …

The Phanerozoic tectonic regimes of the South China Block (SCB) hold a key to understanding
of its geodynamic evolution with respect to formation of numerous mineral resources. …

Zircon U‐Pb geochronological data on over 900 zircon grains for Cambrian to Silurian
sandstone samples from the South China Block constrain the pre‐Devonian tectonic setting of, …

The Emeishan flood basalts are part of an important large igneous province (LIP) along the
western margin of the Yangtze Block, Southwest China. Mafic rocks interlayered with …

Archaean–Proterozoic crust, atop a thick (180 km), cold (40 mW/m 2 ), melt-depleted mantle
keel, characterised the North China Craton (NCC) at the end of the Precambrian. Differing …

The Hegenshan ophiolite in the Inner Mongolian-Daxinganling Orogenic Belt (IMDOB),
northern China, consists of several discontinuous blocks composed dominantly of serpentinized …
