Thermal state and evolving geodynamic regimes of the Meso- to Neoarchean North China Craton [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Constraining the thermal state of the lithosphere is crucial to understanding geodynamic regime in early Earth. Here the authors reconstruct ~2.9–2.5 Ga thermal structure of continental lithosphere of the North China Craton using TTG and propose a ...

Sedimentary environment and depositional evolution of the Mesoproterozoic Bingmagou Formation on the southern margin of the North China Craton [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
The Precambrian sedimentary strata on the southern margin of the North China Craton are well developed and widely exposed, making the region ideal for the study of depositional processes. However, because of the length of the depositional history and the

Sediment provenance of Late Carboniferous-Early Triassic in the Puyang area, Eastern North China Craton [PDF]

open access: yesiScience
Summary: To reveal the stratigraphic age of the Shiqianfeng Formation in the eastern continental basin of the North China Craton and the provenance of its sediments from the Late Carboniferous to the Early Triassic, six sandstone samples from the Puyang ...

Palaeoproterozoic assembly of the North China Craton [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Magazine, 2001
The basement of the North China Craton consists of the Eastern and Western blocks, separated by the Central Zone. Both the Eastern and Western blocks are dominated by late Archaean tonalitic-trondhjemitic-granodioritic gneiss complexes interdigitated ...

Metallogeny and craton destruction: Records from the North China Craton

open access: yesOre Geology Reviews, 2014
Abstract The link between metallogeny and craton destruction in the North China Craton (NCC) remains poorly understood, particularly the mechanisms within the interior of the craton. In this overview, we summarize the major stages in the history of formation and evolution of the NCC, the spatio-temporal distribution and types of major ore species, as

Amalgamation of the North China Craton: Key issues and discussion

open access: yesPrecambrian Research, 2012
Abstract Geological and geophysical data indicate that the Precambrian basement of the North China Craton (NCC) formed by amalgamation of a number of micro-continental blocks. The number of blocks, when they existed and how they came together are controversial, and in particular the following issues are disputed: (1) the timing of collisional event(s)

Archaean multi-stage magmatic underplating drove formation of continental nuclei in the North China Craton [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
The geodynamic processes that formed Earth’s earliest continents are intensely debated. Particularly, the transformation from ancient crustal nuclei into mature Archaean cratons is unclear, primarily owing to the paucity of well-preserved Eoarchaean ...

Mesozoic magmatic evolution of the Laiyuan complex: Tracing the crust-mantle and lithosphere-asthenosphere interactions in the central North China Craton

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The Laiyuan complex in the central North China Craton (NCC) incorporating different magmatic suites offers an excellent opportunity to investigate the lithospheric evolution and cratonic destruction. However, the petrogenesis and tectonic implications of

Huge growth of the late Mesoarchean–early Neoarchean (2.6~3.0 Ga) continental crust in the North China Craton: A review

open access: yesDizhi lixue xuebao, 2022
Based on a brief introduction of the spatial distribution, rock types and formation ages of the late Mesoarchean–early Neoarchean (2.6~3.0 Ga) rocks in some key areas of the North China Craton, this paper summarizes the ages and geochemical and Nd-Hf-O ...
