This study reports age, petrologic and geochemical data for andesites and dacites from the Late Triassic sedimentary strata of northern Hohxil, in the Hohxil–Songpan–Ganzi Block (northern Tibet), which constitutes the most voluminous Triassic strata on Earth. LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb analysis of dacite (210.4±1.9Ma) and whole rock 40 Ar– 39 Ar analyses for both the andesites and dacites...
The Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) is a natural laboratory for the study of accretionary tectonics and crustal growth owing to its massive generation of juvenile crust in the Paleozoic. There is a debate, however, on the mechanism of this growth. In the Baogutu area of the western Junggar region, northern Xinjiang (west China), diorite–granodiorite porphyry plutons and dikes are widely associated...
Voluminous Late Paleozoic igneous rocks and associated Cu–Au–Mo deposits occur in the northwestern Tianshan district, Xinjiang, west China. However, the tectonic setting and petrogenesis of these rocks remain controversial. This paper reports zircon U–Pb and Hf CUU isotopic data, major and trace elements, and Sr–Nd–Pb isotopic data for the intrusive rocks and minor dacites in the Lamasu–Dabate area...
Carboniferous volcanic rocks in the Alataw area, Northern Tianshan Range (Xinjiang), consist of early Carboniferous (ca. 320 Ma) adakites and Nb-enriched arc basalts and basaltic andesites (NEBs), and late Carboniferous (ca. 306–310 Ma) mainly high-K calc-alkaline andesites, dacites and rhyolites. The adakites are calc-alkaline, and characterized by high Na 2 O/K 2 O (1.52–3.32) ratios,...
Both adakitic and shoshonitic igneous rocks in the Luzong area, Anhui Province, eastern China are associated with Cretaceous Cu–Au mineralization. The Shaxi quartz diorite porphyrites exhibit adakite-like geochemical features, such as light rare earth element (LREE) enrichment, heavy REE (HREE) depletion, high Al 2 O 3 , MgO, Sr, Sr/Y and La/Yb values, and low Y and Yb contents. They...
