Zircon Hf-Isotopic Mapping Applied to the Metal Exploration of the Sanjiang Tethyan Orogenic Belt, Southwestern China

Applied Sciences (Switzerland), 2022
Zircon Hf-isotopic mapping can be regarded as a useful tool for evaluating the coupling relationship between lithospheric structure and metallic mineralization. Hence, this method shows important significance for mineral prediction.

Early Evolution of Himalayan Orogenic Belt and Generation of Middle Eocene Magmatism: Constraint From Haweng Granodiorite Porphyry in the Tethyan Himalaya [PDF]

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Although the Himalayan orogenic belt is dominant by Oligocene to Miocene leucogranites, it initiated magmatic activity from middle Eocene. However, the exact distribution and genesis of early magmatism are yet to be resolved.

The Early Silurian Gabbro in the Eastern Kunlun Orogenic Belt, Northeast Tibet: Constraints on the Proto-Tethyan Ocean Closure [PDF]

Minerals (Basel, Switzerland), 2020
The early Paleozoic is a crucial period in the formation and evolution of the Eastern Kunlun Orogenic Belt (EKOB), and is of great significance for understanding the evolutionary history of the Proto-Tethyan Ocean. This paper presents new petrography, geochemistry, zircon U–Pb dating, and Lu–Hf isotopic research on the Yuejingshan ...

The boundary between the Central Asian Orogenic belt and Tethyan tectonic domain deduced from Pb isotopic data [PDF]

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences, 2015
Abstract A detailed comparison of the tectonic features of Central Asian Orogenic belt (CAOB) and Tethyan Tectonic domain (TTD) is of great significance to our understanding of the origin of global orogenic systems. Currently, there are many uncertainties in the general framework to fully define the tectonic properties of the CAOB and TTD.

Metallogeny of the Tethyan Orogenic Belt: From Mesozoic Magmatic Arcs to Cenozoic Back-Arc and Postcollisional Settings in Southeast Europe, Anatolia, and the Lesser Caucasus: An Introduction [PDF]

Economic Geology, 2019
Introduction The Tethyan mountain ranges stretch from northwestern Africa and western Europe to the southwest Pacific Ocean and constitute the longest continuous orogenic belt on Earth. It is an extremely fertile metallogenic belt, which includes a wide diversity of ore deposit types formed in very different geodynamic settings, which ...

The Middle Triassic Intermediate to Basic Rocks in the Eastern Kunlun Orogenic Belt, Northeast Tibet: Implication for the Paleo-Tethyan Ocean Closure

Minerals (Basel, Switzerland)
Large volumes of Early Mesozoic intermediate to basic igneous rocks related to the evolution of the Paleo-Tethys Ocean are exposed in the East Kunlun Orogenic Belt (EKOB). The petrography, geochemistry, and results of zircon U-Pb dating of Defusheng intermediate to basic rocks from the eastern segment of the EKOB are presented in this report.

Carboniferous-Triassic felsic igneous rocks and typical mineral deposits in the Truong Son orogenic belt, SE Asia: Implications for Paleo-Tethyan tectonic evolution and metallogeny

Ore Geology Reviews, 2019
The Truong Son orogenic belt (TSOB) is part of the eastern Tethyan mineral deposit domain, and preserves a near-complete record of Paleo-Tethyan orogeny-related magmatism and mineralization. By compiling and evaluating the data of plutonic and (sub)volcanic rocks and associated deposits on a regional scale, and combining with new data of typical ...
