The Tethyside orogen, a direct consequence of the separation of the Gondwanaland and the
accretion of Eurasia, is a huge composite orogenic system that was generated during …

The appinite suite of rocks offers a unique opportunity to study the effect of water on the
generation, emplacement and crystallization history of mafic to felsic magma. The suite …

The temporal and geochemical evolution of arc magmatism that culminated in porphyry
Cu±Mo±Au deposit formation has been studied in three separate Neo-Tethyan arc systems …

We present a geodynamic reconstruction of the Central–Western Mediterranean and
neighboring areas during the last 50Myr, including magmatological and tectonic …

The water-saturated phase relations have been determined for a primitive magnesian
andesite (57 wt% SiO 2, 9 wt% MgO) from the Mt. Shasta, CA region over the pressure range …

Abstract LA-ICP-MS U–Pb zircon dating reveals that the Phu Kham adakites in the Truong
Son Belt were emplaced during the Late Carboniferous (ca. 306 to 304 Ma), whereas the …

Bulk-rock major and trace element, Sr–Nd–Hf isotope, zircon U–Pb age, and zircon Hf

Abstract Late Cretaceous (~ 106–76 Ma) adakite-like intrusive rocks in the middle-eastern
Gangdese belt occur in an E–W trending belt paralleling the Indus–Yarlung suture, south …

The Qinling–Dabie–Sulu Orogen is dotted with Mesozoic igneous rocks and its exact
tectonic origin is still controversial, especially the precise timing of initial collision between …

Abstract High-Mg andesites (HMAs) and related basalts constitute a volumetrically minor,
but genetically important occurrence along most convergent plate margins of various ages …
