Differential Craton Destruction Controlled by Fossil Structures in the Central North China Craton
Geophysical Research LettersCraton evolution plays a fundamental role in stabilizing the continental lithosphere and the long‐term evolution of Earth's surface environment. The Shanxi Rift Zone (SRZ) within the North China Craton marks an ongoing craton destruction.

Linking deep CO2 outgassing to cratonic destruction. [PDF]
Natl Sci Rev, 2022 Abstract Outgassing of carbon dioxide from the Earth's interior regulates the surface climate through deep time. Here we examine the role of cratonic destruction in mantle CO2 outgassing via collating and presenting new data for Paleozoic kimberlites, Mesozoic basaltic rocks and their mantle xenoliths from the eastern North China Craton (

Marcasite at the Permian‐Triassic Transition
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 377-399., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

On the destructive tendencies of cratons
Geology, 2020 Cratons are regions of the Earth's crust that have been relatively stable for more than a couple of billion years. This stability is remarkable — the strong tectonic plates in the ocean are, after all, recycled into the deep mantle in less than a tenth of this time. In Figure 1, the cratons are marked as blue patches of thick lithosphere.

Geosystems and Geoenvironment, 2022 Cratons are the stable portions of the continents for at least the past two billion years. Their longevity is generally attributed to their thick, cold, rheologically strong and chemically depleted subcrustal mantle lithosphere.

Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 The North China Craton (NCC) is renowned for cratonic reactivation and dramatic destruction. Detailed lithospheric structure is crucial for understanding the geological evolution and seismogenesis of the NCC.

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 The North China Craton underwent extensive and widespread crustal reworking (or decratonization) during the Mesozoic. However, how the decratonization operated is not well understood.
