Tectonic evolution of a composite collision orogen: an overview on the Qinling–Tongbai–Hong'an–Dabie–Sulu orogenic belt in central China
YB Wu, YF Zheng - Gondwana Research, 2013 - Elsevier
The formation of collisional orogens is a prominent feature in convergent plate margins. It is

Garnet: A rock-forming mineral petrochronometer
EF Baxter, MJ Caddick… - Reviews in Mineralogy …, 2017 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Garnet could be the ultimate petrochronometer. Not only can you date it directly (with an
accuracy and precision that may surprise some), but it is also a common rock-forming and …

Continental origin of eclogites in the North Qinling terrane and its tectonic implications
Eclogites in an orogen, serving as a credible marker for deep subduction of oceanic or
continental crust, are a key to decipher the process and fate of plate subduction. The nature …
