Where and when did the Paleo-Asian ocean form?

Precambrian Research, 2018
Abstract The closure of the long-lived Paleo-Asian Ocean generated the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB). However, the tectonic history and circumstances of where and when this ocean formed are poorly constrained. We provide a new perspective to help resolve this problem.

Nature and assembly of microcontinental blocks within the Paleo-Asian Ocean

Earth-Science Reviews, 2018
Abstract The microcontinental blocks in the CAOB include the combined NE China blocks (comprising the Erguna, Xing'an, Songliao and Jimusi-Khanka blocks) in the eastern segment of the CAOB, the Kazakhstan-Yili-Central Tianshan and Junggar blocks in the western segment of the CAOB, and the Tuva-Mongolia blocks and Beishan block in the central segment ...

Recycling of Paleo-Asian Ocean carbonates and its influence on the lithospheric composition of the North China Craton

Science China Earth Sciences, 2021
The deep carbon cycle, which plays a critical role in mantle evolution and Earth habitability, is closely linked to the recycling of carbonate-bearing rocks through subduction. Marine carbonates are subducted to different depths during the closure of oceanic basins, thus carry important signatures of the disappeared oceanic basins.

Geodynamic modeling on the formation mechanism of Linxi Basin: New constraints on the closure time of the Paleo-Asian Ocean

Tectonophysics, 2021
Abstract The Linxi Basin is situated at the eastern portion of the Tianshan-Solonker suture where the Paleo-Asian Ocean closed and represents the key region to understand the tectonic evolution of the Solonker suture. The Linxi Basin has the best preserved Permian sediments and its formation mechanism is much debated.

Rift–Related Sediments of the Passive Continental Margin of the Paleo-Asian Ocean (Baikal Segment)

Doklady Earth Sciences, 2018
The geological position, composition, and age of detrital zircons of sedimentary deposits of the Nugan Formation of the Western Baikal region underlying the Golousta Formation of the Baikal series of Ediacaran age have been studied. The formation of both stratigraphic units due to the same sources of detrital material, located within the southern flank

Geochemistry and zircon U-Pb-Hf isotopes of Paleozoic granitoids along the Solonker suture zone in Inner Mongolia, China: Constraints on bidirectional subduction and closure timing of the Paleo-Asian Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesGondwana Research
The closure of the Paleo-Asian Ocean resulted in formation of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) accompanied by considerable Phanerozoic juvenile crustal growth.

Detrital zircon provenance constraints on the final closure of the middle segment of the Paleo-Asian Ocean

Gondwana Research, 2019
Abstract The main site and timing of the final closure of the middle segment of the Paleo-Asian Ocean (PAO) has been an issue of hot debate, which hampers us from better understanding the late-stage tectonic evolution of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB).

The Timing of the Paleo-Asian Oceanic Closure: Geochemical Constraints from the Jigede Gabbro in the Alxa Block

Petrology, 2019
This paper investigates the Jigede gabbros from the Shalazhashan tectonic belt, Alxa Block. Laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) zircon U-Pb dating reveals that they were emplaced in the Middle Permian (ca. 262 Ma). All the gabbro samples collected from the intrusion exhibit low contents of TiO2 (0.24–0.37 wt %) and

Geochemical evolution of intraplate magmatism in the Paleo-Asian Ocean from the Late Neoproterozoic to the Early Cambrian

Petrology, 2008
A group of oceanic islands and/or seamounts (hereafter, paleoseamounts) was produced by oceanic hot-spot magmatism in the Late Proterozoic-Early Cambrian in the southwestern margin of the Paleo-Asian Ocean. They were accreted to the Kuznetsk-Altai island arc in the Late Cambrian and were subsequently incorporated during the closing of the paleocean ...

Time constraints for the closing of the Paleo-Asian Ocean in the Northern Alxa Region: Evidence from Wuliji granites

Science China Earth Sciences, 2012
The Wuliji pluton in the Northern Alxa Region, Inner Mongolia, is the principal part of Shalazhashan Mountain. It belongs to the Zongnaishan-Shalazhashan Arc Zone, northwestern North China Plate, whose north is Engger Us Ophiolite Belt and south is Qagan Qulu Ophiolite Belt.
