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.

Middle Triassic paleogeography is essential for the paleoclimate change and ecosystem recovery after the end-Permian mass extinction, but is highly debated in the Paleo-Tethys Ocean and North China Craton, eastern Pangaea.

Palaeoproterozoic assembly of the North China Craton [PDF]
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 with minor supracrustal rocks metamorphosed at ~2.5 Ga, with anticlockwise P–T paths.

Destruction of the North China Craton in the Mesozoic
The North China Craton (NCC) was originally formed by the amalgamation of the eastern and western blocks along an orogenic belt at ∼1.9 Ga. After cratonization, the NCC was essentially stable until the Mesozoic, when intense felsic magmatism and related mineralization, deformation, pull-apart basins, and exhumation of the deep crust widely occurred ...

Eoarchean to Paleoproterozoic Crustal Evolution in the North China Craton [PDF]
<p>The early evolution of continental crust, particularly its lower layer, during the first 2.0 billion years of Earth history remains enigmatic. Here, we present the first coupled in-situ U-Pb, Lu-Hf and O isotope data for the Precambrian zircons from fourteen deep-crustal xenoliths from five localities in the North China craton.

Major tectonic units of the North China Craton and their Paleoproterozoic assembly [PDF]
The basement of the North China Craton can be divided into the Eastern and Western Blocks and the Central Zone (Trans-North China Orogen). The West Block formed by the amalgamation of the Ordos Block in the south and the Yinshan Block in the north 1.9-2 ...

Chemical Significance and Chronology of Mesoproterozoic clastic rocks in Huainan Area
After the 1.8Ga cracking event, the North China Craton entered the development stage of paraplatform, its southern margin, the Huainan area is in lack of accurate age data, so its stratigraphic sedimentation time limit has been controversial.
