The Bangong–Nujiang suture zone (BNSZ) is located in the central Tibetan Plateau, and represents the relict of the Bangong–Nujiang Tethyan Ocean (BNTO). This paper presents zircon U–Pb ages and whole-rock geochemical and Sr–Nd isotope data for the ophiolitic rocks from the Rutog, Dongco, Dongqiao, Amdo, and Dengqen areas (from west to east) in the BNSZ. Zircon U–Pb ages obtained from five gabbros...
This study presents new major and trace element, plus Sr–Nd and zircon U–Pb isotope data for the Zhongcang granitic plutons, which are located to the south of the Yongzhu–Asuo ophiolite belt within the northwestern part of the central Lhasa subterrane, Tibetan Plateau. These data provide new insights into the Late Cretaceous tectonic evolution of southern Tibet. The Zhongcang plutons are dominated...
The Sangri Group volcanic rocks are distributed along the southern margin of the Lhasa Terrane on the northern side of the Indus-Yarlung Zangbo suture zone. This Group consists of the Mamuxia and Bima formations and has long been considered to be Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous in age. In this paper, we report for the first time zircon LA-ICPMS U-Pb ages, whole-rock major and trace element geochemistry,...
High-Mg diorites were discovered in the southern part of the ca. 830Ma Dongma Pluton, northern Guangxi Province of southern China. The diorites (SiO2=59–65wt%) are characterized by high MgO (6.7–8.9wt%) contents and Mg-number [Mg#=100×Mg/(Mg+Fe)] (69–73), in contrary to the associated medium-Mg (MgO=3.4–3.8wt%, Mg#=59–63) granodiorites in the Dongma main body and the low-Mg (MgO=1.4–1.9wt%, Mg#=46–51)...
