The Ailao Shan–Red River shear zone revisited: Timing and tectonic implications

GSA Bulletin, 2020
Continental strike-slip shear zones that may bear important information about the evolution of convergent tectonics often occur to accommodate plate convergence.

Ductile Shear Zones

2015
Mylonite with a big delta mantled porphyroclast of K-feldspar in a matrix of quartz, mica and feldspar. Mylonite is derived from a porphyritic granite characterized by large K-feldspar phenocrysts (up to 20 cm long). Medium-grade conditions can be inferred from the recrystallization of K-feldspar along the rims of porphyroclast.

Cenozoic Exhumation of the Ailaoshan‐Red River Shear Zone: New Insights From Low‐Temperature Thermochronology

Tectonics, 2020
Continental‐scale shear zones play an important role in accommodating block extrusion and rotation as shown by deformation on the Ailaoshan‐Red River shear zone (ASRRSZ) in the SE Tibetan Plateau. This study presents 13 apatite (U‐Th)/He, 11 zircon (U‐Th)
