The timing of the initial collision between the South and North China blocks constraining from the sediments in the eastern Sichuan Basin [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2023
In this study, detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology, trace element and Hf isotopic compositional data from the Early-Middle Triassic clastic rocks in the eastern Sichuan Basin were obtained to distinguish the sediment provenance and constrain the timing of

Using detrital zircon to reconstruct Neoproterozoic crustal thickness variation in the northwestern margin of the Yangtze Block [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Trace element geochemistry and chronology of zircon are reliable tools for reconstructing sediment provenance and crustal evolution, particularly in contexts where early crustal and rock records are sparse.

Geochemistry and detrital zircon U–Pb–Hf isotopic data reveal the provenance and tectonic setting of the Xujiahe Formation [PDF]

Scientific Reports
The depositional age, provenance and tectonic setting of the Xujiahe Formation have been studied, but remain intensely debated. In this study, we focus on the second segment of the Xujiahe Formation (T3x2) as a research object.

Integrated detrital rutile and detrital zircon ages: a new perspective on the tectonic evolution of South China. [PDF]

Natl Sci Rev
ABSTRACT Paleogeographic reconstructions are of key importance for understanding the history of continental breakups and amalgamations during Earth’s history. A special case is the history of the Asian continent, which, compared to other continents, consists of several large cratons and numerous smaller continental blocks. The history of

Provenance and tectonic implications of the Yanshi bauxite area in Western Henan, China [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2021
The bauxite layer in Western Henan supplies a large number of bauxite ores and is useful for studying tectonic movement. In this paper, the bauxite samples were selected to carry out LA-ICP-MS detrital zircons U-Pb dating and Hf isotope testing.

Fission-track Analysis of Detrital Zircon [PDF]

Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry, 2005
Zircon has become one of the most important minerals for studying sediment provenance and the exhumation history of orogenic belts. The reason for this utility is that zircon is common in many igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks, it is resistant to weathering and abrasion, and it can be dated with various isotopic methods having reasonable high

Paleo-Mesoproterozoic Rifting Along the Margins of Archean Bundelkhand Craton North-Central India: Timing the Event from U–Pb SHRIMP Zircon Data and Their Geodynamic Implications [PDF]

Lithosphere, 2023
In this article, novel geochronological (U–Pb SHRIMP) and geochemical data are presented from the lowermost sandstone unit (Par formation), basement granites of Gwalior Basin and sandstones from the Bhopal Basin, located along margins of the Archaean ...

Provenance of the lower jurassic quartz-rich conglomerate in northwestern sichuan basin and its link with the pre-collisional unroofing history of the north longmen shan thrust belt, NE tibetan plateau margin

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The research on the pre-collisional tectonic evolution of basin-mountain system at the margin of Tibetan plateau provides insights into the upward and outward growth mechanism of the plateau in the Cenozoic. Lower Jurassic Baitianba Formation quartz-rich

New geochronological and provenance constraints on the Late Mesozoic sedimentary formations in the western Shandong Province and Tanlu fault zone, China

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
We present new LA-ICP-MS detrital zircon U-Pb age and trace element data of the Late Mesozoic sedimentary sequences from the western Shandong and Tanlu fault zone, with the aim to constrain the depositional ages and sedimentary sources.
