The Chinese Central Tianshan Arc Terrane (CTA) in the southern Central Asian Orogenic Belt is characterized by voluminous Palaeozoic to Mesozoic (500–240 Ma) granites, with a magmatic “flare‐up” at Early Permian time (ca. 280 Ma). However, the tectonic setting of the Early Permian granites in the CTA is highly debated. In this study, Early Permian (ca. 280 Ma) granitic intrusions, including quartz...
The Chinese Tianshan in the southwestern part of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) is characterized by a variety of high-grade metamorphic rocks, which provide critical constraints for understanding the geodynamic evolution of the CAOB. In this paper, we present detailed petrological and zircon U–Pb geochronological studies of the Weiya low-pressure and high-temperature (LP-HT) granulites of...
Numerous microcontinents are known to occur in the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB), one of the largest accretionary orogens and the most significant area of Paleozoic crustal growth in the world. The evolution of the Precambrian crust in these microcontinents is central to understanding the accretionary and collisional tectonics of the CAOB. Here, we present systematic zircon U–Pb dating and Hf...
