THE LATE PALEOZOIC EVOLUTION OF THE CENTRAL INNER MONGOLIA, CHINA: A PERSPECTIVE FROM METAMORPHIC STUDY [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The Xing’an-Inner Mongolia Orogenic Belt (XIMOB) exposed in the eastern section of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) is generally thought to have resulted from closure of the Paleo-Asian ocean [Şengör et al., 1993].

Geochronological Constraints on Diachronous Post‐Collisional Slab Breakoff Along the Paleo‐Tethyan Sutures

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The slab breakoff model is a preferred geodynamic interpretation for post‐collisional exhumation and associated magmatic flare‐ups. In this study, rutile U–Pb dating of retrograde eclogites revealed distinct stages of exhumation along the Paleo‐Tethyan sutures in southwest China. The studied samples yielded ages of 246.7 ± 8.5 and 239.7 ± 14.0

Reconstructing Along‐Strike Variability of Retreating Accretionary Margins Using Detrital Isotopic Proxies in Patagonia and Japan

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Retreating accretionary systems are common features of convergent plate margins. They are characterized by upper plate extension and backarc basin formation, which often forms diachronously and asymmetrically along‐strike. This study tests the hypothesis that this along‐strike variability in backarc basin formation is reflected in detrital and

Petrogenesis and Tectonic Implication of the Newly Identified Rhyacian and Orosirian Orthogneisses in the Northwestern Part of the Gyeonggi Massif (Soyeonpyeongdo and Ganghwado Areas), South Korea: Constrained From Whole‐Rock Geochemistry and Zircon U‐Pb‐Hf Isotopic Compositions

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Gyeonggi Massif is one of the major Precambrian basements in the Korean Peninsula where Paleoproterozoic orthogneiss and paragneiss were widely exposed. In this study, newly identified Rhyacian to Orosirian meta‐igneous rocks from the northwestern Gyeonggi Massif (Soyeonpyeongdo and Ganghwado areas) were investigated to elucidate their ...

Provenance and metamorphism of the Mesoproterozoic Baoyintu Group: Implication for the interaction between the western Central Asian Orogenic Belt and the North China Craton

open access: yes, 2022
The deposition and metamorphism of the sedimentary rocks are closely related to the tectonic affinity and interactions among different terranes. The metasedimentary Baoyintu Group, which is distributed in the junctional area adjacent to the Alxa Block ...

DETRITAL ZIRCON AGES AND SOURCES OF MATERIAL FOR THE LOWER CAMBRIAN DEPOSITS OF THE MEL'GIN TROUGH OF THE BUREYA CONTINENTAL MASSIF [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Bureya continental massif is one of the largest continental massifs in the eastern part of the Central Asian orogenic belt (CAOB) (Fig. 1), and knowledge of its geological structure is of fundamental importance in understanding the history of its ...

The mesoproterozoic to paleozoic crustal growth and rejuvenation in the Central Asian orogenic belt : constraints from the Nd-Hf Isotopic studies

open access: yes, 2017
A study of the Nd-Hf isotopic data on the crustal growth of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt has been carried out because it is a relatively new area of study and the orogenic evolution is still controversial.

RIDGE SUBDUCTION IN THE HISTORY OF THE CENTRAL ASIAN OROGENIC BELT: EVIDENCE AND TECTONIC IMPLICATIONS FOR THE EVOLUTION OF AN ACCRETIONARY OROGEN

open access: yesGeodynamics & Tectonophysics, 2017
Cenozoic ridge subduction and the resultant slab windows have been well documented worldwide [Sisson et al., 2003], especially along the western margins of North and South America [Thorkelson, Taylor, 1989]. The principal characteristics of ridge subduction, which can be used to recognise the process in ancient orogens, include: intrusion of ridge ...
