Thermal state and evolving geodynamic regimes of the Meso- to Neoarchean North China Craton [PDF]
Nature 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]
Scientific 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]
iScienceSummary: 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 ...

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

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023 In a new study, Wu, Wang, Zhou, Zhao, Haproff, et al. (2022, https://doi.org/10.1029/2022GC010662) present a comprehensive study of the North Margin Orogen of the North China Craton (NCC), showing that older accreted rocks in this belt preserve a record ...

Dizhi lixue xuebao, 2022 Due to the complicated tectonic and sedimentary history and the lack of effective paleo-thermal indicators, the Meso-Neoproterozoic thermal history of the Yanliao rift zone in the northern margin of the North China Craton is ambiguous, which causes the ...

Craton Destruction Induced by Drastic Drops in Lithospheric Mantle Viscosity
Earth and Space Science, 2022 The disruption of the mantle roots of cratons is common after cratonization. Craton destruction, which is characterized by severe lithospheric thinning, extensive thrust and extensional deformation, basin filling, and intense thermal activities, is ...
