Geological reconstructions of the East Asian blocks: From the breakup of Rodinia to the assembly of Pangea
Pangea is the youngest supercontinent in Earth's history and its main body formed by
assembly of Gondwana and Laurasia about 300–250 Ma ago. As supported by voluminous …

Tectonic models for accretion of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt
The Central Asian Orogenic Belt (c. 1000–250 Ma) formed by accretion of island arcs,
ophiolites, oceanic islands, seamounts, accretionary wedges, oceanic plateaux and …

Geochronology of the Phanerozoic granitoids in northeastern China
FY Wu, DY Sun, WC Ge, YB Zhang, ML Grant… - Journal of Asian Earth …, 2011 - Elsevier
Northeast (NE) China is characterized by immense volumes of granitic rocks, exposed over
an area of∼ 200,000 km2. Although the precise geochronological framework was not clear …

Accretion leading to collision and the Permian Solonker suture, Inner Mongolia, China: Termination of the central Asian orogenic belt
The Solonker suture records the termination of the central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB).
However, tectonic development of the Solonker suture is poorly understood. We report new …

A review of the Paleozoic tectonics in the eastern part of Central Asian Orogenic Belt
Abstract The Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) is the largest accretionary orogen in the
world, which is responsible for considerable Phanerozoic juvenile crustal growth. The NE …

Late Paleozoic to early Triassic multiple roll-back and oroclinal bending of the Mongolia collage in Central Asia
The architecture and mechanics of an orogen can be understood in terms of a system of
collages that are characterized by a complex assemblage of multiple components, but the …

Magmatic and crustal differentiation history of granitic rocks from Hf-O isotopes in zircon
Granitic plutonism is the principal agent of crustal differentiation, but linking granite
emplacement to crust formation requires knowledge of the magmatic evolution, which is …

Reassessment of continental growth during the accretionary history of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt
We argue that the production of mantle-derived or juvenile continental crust during the
accretionary history of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) has been grossly …

Accretionary orogens through Earth history
Accretionary orogens form at intraoceanic and continental margin convergent plate
boundaries. They include the supra-subduction zone forearc, magmatic arc and back-arc …
