The giant Jiaodong gold province, with more than 5000 t of proven gold resources, is unique
in that its Mesozoic gold deposits are hosted in a Precambrian basement block. There has …

Abstract The Mesozoic Western Pacific subduction system significantly impacted the North
China and South China blocks along the East Asian continental margin and influenced the …

The Jiaodong gold province, the largest gold producer in China, formed in a setting
dominated by a 30-my episode of Izanagi plate rollback and widespread extension …

We present a review of major gold mineralization events in China and a summary of
metallogenic provinces, deposit types, metallogenic epochs and tectonic settings. Over 200 …

Eastern China provides a precious opportunity to explore how subduction drives evolution of
the overlying continental lithosphere and to understand the fate of subducted plates. In this …

Global plate motion models provide a spatial and temporal framework for geological data
and have been effective tools for exploring processes occurring at the earth's surface …

The Cretaceous tectonic evolution of South China is characterized by widespread
extensional basin and dome generation, voluminous magma intrusion/eruption and …

Abstract The North China craton (NCC) hosts numerous gold deposits and is known as the
most gold-productive region of China. The gold deposits were mostly formed within a few …

Porphyry deposits supply most of the world's Cu and Mo resources. Over 90% of the
porphyry deposits are found at convergent margins, especially above active subduction …

Continental China is a mosaic of numerous tectonic blocks, which amalgamated from
