Continental crustal growth processes recorded in the Gangdese Batholith, southern Tibet
The continental crust in the overriding plate of the India-Asia collision zone in southern Tibet
is characterized by an overthickened layer of felsic composition with an underlying granulite …

[PDF][PDF] Mesozoic–Cenozoic geological evolution of the Himalayan-Tibetan orogen and working tectonic hypotheses
The Himalayan-Tibetan orogen culminated during the Cenozoic India--Asia collision, but its
geological framework and initial growth were fundamentally the result of multiple, previous …

Early Eocene (c. 50 Ma) collision of the Indian and Asian continents: Constraints from the North Himalayan metamorphic rocks, southeastern Tibet
Despite several decades of investigations, the nature and timing of the India–Asia collision
remain debated. In the western Himalaya, the leading edge of the Indian continent was …

Insight into zircon REE oxy-barometers: A lattice strain model perspective
Zircon rare earth element (REE) oxy-barometers have been widely used to calculate magma
oxygen fugacity. However, sometimes confusing results are obtained, such as extremely …

The lower crust of the Gangdese magmatic arc, southern Tibet, implication for the growth of continental crust
Magmatic arcs are thought to be the primary sites of modern-day continental crustal growth,
and arc crustal sections provide an exceptional opportunity to directly observe the …

Magmatism during continental collision, subduction, exhumation and mountain collapse in collisional orogenic belts and continental net growth: A perspective
Continental orogens on Earth can be classified into accretionary orogen and collisional
orogen. Magmatism in orogens occurs in every periods of an orogenic cycle, from oceanic …

Active construction of southernmost Tibet revealed by deep seismic imaging
Southernmost Tibet exhibits an anomalously twice the normal thickness of average
continental crust. There is no available theory to explain and the driving mechanism remains …

Australian plate subduction is responsible for northward motion of the India‐Asia collision zone and∼ 1,000 km lateral migration of the Indian slab
Distributions of slabs within Earth's mantle are increasingly used to reconstruct past
subduction zones, based on first‐order assumptions that slabs sink vertically after slab break …

Paleocene (c. 62 Ma) Leucogranites in Southern Lhasa, Tibet: Products of Syn-collisional Crustal Anatexis during Slab Roll-back?
Voluminous peraluminous leucogranites are common in large-scale orogenic belts and are
crucial in gaining a fuller understanding of the related geodynamic process. However, the …
