Geochronology of the Phanerozoic granitoids in northeastern China

open access: yes, 2011
Northeast (NE) China is characterized by immense volumes of granitic rocks, exposed over an area of ∼200,000 km 2 . Although the precise geochronological framework was not clear, it was considered that most of them were emplaced during the Paleozoic ...

Archean granitoids of India: windows into early Earth tectonics – an introduction

open access: yesSpecial Publications, 2020
Granitoids form the dominant component of Archean cratons. They are generated by partial melting of diverse crustal and mantle sources and subsequent differentiation of the primary magmas, and are formed through a variety of geodynamic processes ...

Petrogenesis of Mesozoic granitoids and volcanic rocks in south China : a response to tectonic evolution.

open access: yes, 2006
This paper summarizes the new results on the petrogenesis of Mesozoic granitoids and volcanic rocks in South China. The authors propose that these rocks were formed in time and space as a response to regional tectonic regime change from the continent ...

ASTER VNIR‐SWIR Based Lithological Mapping of Granitoids in the Western Junggar Orogen (NW Xinjiang): Improved Inputs to Random Forest Method

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2023
Although advanced spaceborne thermal emission and reflection radiometer multispectral analysis for lithological mapping has been widely applied, traditional methods such as band ratios (BR) and principal component analysis (PCA) are still hampered by ...

Petrography, geochemistry and tectonic setting of ‎Hanar granitoids (south of Birjand): a signature for magmatism ‎identification of east of Lut block [PDF]

open access: yesپترولوژی, 2018
The Hanar granitoids, geographically located 155 km south of Birjand in the east of Iran. Geologically, It belongs to the Lut block volcanic–plutonic belt and occurs near to the Lut block-Sistan suture zone border. The granitoid rocks consist of tonalite,

An oceanic subduction origin for Archaean granitoids revealed by silicon isotopes

open access: yesNature Geoscience, 2019
Modern oceanic crust is constantly produced at oceanic ridges and recycled back into the mantle at subduction zones via plate tectonics. An outstanding question in geology is whether the Earth started in a non-plate tectonic regime, and if it did, when ...

Mineral Compositions of Syn-collisional Granitoids and their Implications for the Formation of Juvenile Continental Crust and Adakitic Magmatism

open access: yes, 2020
Continental collision zones have been proposed as primary sites of net continental crustal growth. Therefore, studies on syn-collisional granitoids with mafic magmatic enclaves (MMEs) are essential for testing this hypothesis.

Geochemistry of granitoids

open access: yes, 2007
This geochemical compilation includes analyses of both granitoid and sedimentary rocks that were compiled from the thesis of Johns (2002) plus a published paper of Thériault et al. (2001) and archived unpublished GSC digital files of R.J. Thériault. Details of geochemical methods for those samples are contained in the data sources.
