Subduction re-initiation at dying ridge of Neo-Tethys: Insights from mafic and metamafic rocks in Lhaze ophiolitic mélange, Yarlung-Tsangbo Suture Zone

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2019
Ophiolitic melanges provide critical information on the history of subduction and metamorphism and, thus, on the evolution of ancient oceans. Blocks of mafic rocks, garnet-clinopyroxenites and amphibolites have recently been discovered in the Lhaze ...

Late Permian back-arc extension of the eastern Paleo-Tethys Ocean: Evidence from the East Kunlun Orogen, Northern Tibetan Plateau

Lithos, 2019
The East Kunlun Orogen is located in the northern part of the Tibetan Plateau and has received significant attention in tracing the evolution of Paleo-Tethys Ocean. In this study, we present U-Pb zircon geochronology, geochemistry and Sr-Nd isotopic data

Insights into post-orogenic extension and opening of the Palaeo-Tethys Ocean recorded by an Early Devonian core complex in South China

, 2020
The Palaeo-Tethys Ocean formed during the Devonian as a consequence of blocks separating from northern Gondwana. The record of the Palaeo-Tethys Ocean stretches across Eurasia from the European Alps eastward to the southwestern South China block (SCB ...

Constraining subduction-collision processes of the Paleo-Tethys along the Changning–Menglian Suture: New zircon U-Pb ages and Sr–Nd–Pb–Hf–O isotopes of the Lincang Batholith

Gondwana Research, 2017
The Changning–Menglian suture represents a remnant of the main Paleo-Tethys in the Sanjiang Orogen (SW China), and preserves abundant magmatic rocks formed during orogenic processes related to the closure of the Paleo-Tethys.

The Tethys Himalaya

2014
Lithostratigraphy (including leucogranites) is described along with structural features. The nature and age of the intrusive granite are discussed. The South Tibetan Detachment System (STDS) has a complicated history of fault reactivations. It initiated as a normal fault during pre-Himalayan rifting and reactivated as thrust during early phase of ...

Paleomagnetism and Tethys

Geologische Rundschau, 1964
Paleomagnetic measurements prove large scale polar wandering and continental drift in the geologic past. Data from the Permian of the Alpine foldbelt are not consistent with those from “Meso-Europa”; that is from Europe north of this foldbelt. This discrepancy indicates the probability that the Tethys has been a major ocean, whilst during the Mesozoic ...

Sedimentary basin analysis of the Neo-Tethys and its hydrocarbon systems in the Southern Zagros fold-thrust belt and foreland basin

Earth-Science Reviews, 2019
Distribution of the today giant hydrocarbon reserves in the world is associated with the tectonic type of the sedimentary basins and their fill. In this paper, the relation between the tectonics, paleogeography, stratigraphy, eustatic sea-level changes ...

Triassic Reefs of the Tethys

2001
The evolution of Triassic reefs started with a long-lasting global crisis of the metazoan reef ecosystem after the Permian—Triassic mass extinction (about 12 Ma), followed by a relatively rapid recovery during the Middle Triassic. Reef systems were differentiated during the Upper Triassic but were severely affected by a global crisis at the Triassic ...

Proto-Tethys oceanic slab break-off: Insights from early Paleozoic magmatic diversity in the West Kunlun Orogen, NW Tibetan Plateau

Lithos, 2019
Continental collision and subsequent slab break-off can induce granitoid magmatism of variable compositions and ages. We present new geochronological and geochemical data from granitoids in the eastern part of the West Kunlun Orogen, situated along the ...
