The zircon archive of continent formation through time

NMW Roberts, CJ Spencer - 2015 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
The strong resilience of the mineral zircon and its ability to host a wealth of isotopic

Early‐Middle Triassic high Sr/Y granitoids in the southern Central Asian Orogenic Belt: Implications for ocean closure in accretionary orogens

S Li, SL Chung, SA Wilde, BM Jahn… - Journal of …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
The key to defining the termination of accretion in an accretionary orogen is to recognize the
initial magmatic processes that are generated at the time of ocean closure. We present new …
