Crustal recycling at convergent plate boundaries is essential to mantle heterogeneity.
However, crustal signatures in the mantle source of basaltic rocks above subduction zones …

Subduction zones have been the focus of many studies since the advent of plate tectonics in
1960s. Workings within subduction zones beneath volcanic arcs have been of particular …

Subduction zones are tectonic expressions of convergent plate margins, where crustal rocks
descend into and interact with the overlying mantle wedge. They are the geodynamic system …

Abstract The Dabie–Sulu orogenic belt in east-central China contains one of the largest
ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) metamorphic terranes in the world. The UHP eclogites are …

Subduction is the core process of plate tectonics. The mantle wedge in subduction-zone
systems represents a key tectonic unit, playing a significant role in material cycling and …

We document for the first time the presence of a Paleoproterozoic ophiolitic mélange in the
Archean–Paleoproterozoic Kongling Complex in the northern Huangling Dome, Yangtze …

The Jiaodong gold deposits, eastern China define a giant gold province in the Precambrian
high-grade metamorphic crustal basement. Given the early metamorphism, the crustal …

The partial melting of crustal rocks is a fundamental mechanism for the emplacement of
continental granites. However, difficulty can be encountered in building a direct petrogenetic …

With the aim of constraining the influence of the surrounding plates on the Late Paleozoic–
Mesozoic paleogeographic and tectonic evolution of the southern North China Craton …

A large dataset of minor elements (Ni, Mn, Co, Zn, Ca, Ti, Al, Cr and Na) in olivines from
orogenic peridotites is reported to investigate the application of these elements as sensitive …
