Abstract The water content of granulite xenoliths from the Cenozoic Weichang basalts in the northern North China Craton (NCC) is investigated to constrain the nature and evolution of the lower crust. Granulites are categorized into felsic and mafic groups, characterized by widely developed glass‐bearing sieve textures in their constituent minerals ...

Reconciling Seismic and Thermo‐Chemical Models of Cratonic Lithosphere
Abstract Most published global and regional shear‐wave (VS ${V}_{\mathrm{S}}$) velocity models of cratons include a VS ${V}_{\mathrm{S}}$ increase with depth below the Moho, with a maximum at 100–150 km depth. This feature has long been debated, as it appears to require either (implausible) temperature decreases with depth, or substantial, layered ...

Siberian flood basalt magmatism and Mongolia-Okhotsk slab dehydration [PDF]
Experimental data combined with numerical calculations suggest that fast subducting slabs are cold enough to carry into the deep mantle a significant portion of the water in antigorite, which transforms with increasing depth to phase A and then to phase ...

Pan-African metamorphic and magmatic rocks of the Khanka Massif, NE China: Further evidence regarding their affinity [PDF]
The Khanka Massif is a crustal block located along the eastern margin of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) and bordered to the east by Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous circum-Pacific accretionary complexes of the Eastern Asian continental margin.

There are several geodynamic models of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) development [Şengör et al., 1993, Zorin, 1999; Parfenov et al., 1999, 2003; Willem et al., 2012; and others].

Complex shallow mantle beneath the Dharwar craton inferred from Rayleigh wave inversion Geophysical Journal International [PDF]
The 3-D shear velocity structure beneath South India's Dharwar Craton determined from fundamental mode Rayleigh waves phase velocities reveals the existence of anomalously high velocity materials in the depth range of 50–100 km.

ABSTRACT Mongolia's Eastern and Western Gobi Basins preserve a globally significant record of Cretaceous terrestrial vertebrates, yet their biostratigraphic correlations are complicated by a complex geological history. The Eastern Gobi Basin, a northeast‐southwest trending fault‐bounded rift system, includes several minor sub‐basins with distinct ...

The Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) was originated from the subduction, closure, convergence, and post-collisional extension of the Paleo-Asian Ocean located between the North China Craton, Tarim Craton, and the Siberian Craton during the late Permian
