AbstractThe Southeast (SE) Asian tin belt is a major tin producer globally, with a prolonged mineralization history from the Permian to Paleogene (ca. 285–45 Ma). Tin deposits in this region are typically associated with tectonic settings that involve …
AbstractTin deposits are predominantly associated with granitic rocks, yet the factors controlling tin enrichment in granites remain controversial. Here, we investigated the Daguanshan pluton within the central part of the Lincang batholith in the Lanc…
AbstractThe northern Andes of southern Colombia contain a rich geologic history recorded by Proterozoic to Cenozoic metamorphic, igneous, and sedimentary rocks. The region plays a pivotal role in understanding the evolution of topography in northwester…
AbstractMocho-Choshuenco volcano (39.9°S, 72.0°W) produced ~75 explosive eruptions following retreat of the >1.5-km-thick Patagonian Ice Sheet associated with the local Last Glacial Maximum (LGM, from 35 to 18 ka). Here, we extend this record of vol…
AbstractEoarchean rocks are scarce worldwide, limiting our understanding of Earth’s early history. This contribution presents the field geology, sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe (SHRIMP) U-Pb zircon dating, Nd-Hf-O isotopic analysis, and whole-…
AbstractThe major elemental composition of chlorite is widely used for petrogenetic investigations on low-temperature geological processes. However, compositional variations of chlorite within a given tectonic environment are common and, when overlooke…
AbstractThe Ordos block is a rigid portion of the North China Craton lying within the India-Eurasia collision zone that experiences little internal deformation, but is surrounded by active faulting, extensional grabens, and seismicity. In the surroundi…
AbstractThe provenance history of the Pearl River Mouth Basin is of great significance for understanding how the South China margin evolved from a Mesozoic Andean-type subduction margin into the present-day rifted passive margin. However, the long-term…
AbstractThe Dengfeng Complex and Songshan Group comprise a middle- to lower-grade metamorphic complex with abundant lithological associations in the Songshan area (central Henan, China), representing an excellent opportunity to investigate the thermal …
AbstractSuture zones located across the Tibetan region clearly demarcate the rift-and-drift and continental accretion history of the region. However, the intraplate responses to these marginal plate-tectonic events are rarely quantified. Our understand…
