Lithospheric subduction prior to the assembly of the South China and North China blocks is
traditionally considered to be directed northward. However, some critical geological and …

Abstract The Triassic–Jurassic transition, which is here broadly defined as extending from
the Late Triassic through the Early Jurassic (~ 237 Ma to 174 Ma), was an important interval …

With the aim of constraining the influence of the surrounding plates on the Late Paleozoic–
Mesozoic paleogeographic and tectonic evolution of the southern North China Craton …

Abstract In North China, the Mesozoic terrestrial basins, sedimentary palaeogeography and
tectonic settings involved five evolutionary stages:(1) the Early‒Middle Triassic,(2) the Late …

Abstract The Wandashan Orogen of NE China is a typical accretionary orogen related to
Paleo‐Pacific subduction. The Raohe Complex, as a major part of the orogen, consists of …

U–Pb ages of 290 new detrital zircons from five Late Triassic-Early Jurassic sandstone
samples in the northern Sichuan basin, along with other geological data, are used to …

Detrital zircons from northeast China record cyclic magmatism along the northern and
eastern margins of the North China block during late Paleozoic time and Mesozoic time …

Previous studies suggest that the northeastern Tibetan Plateau has been the major source
area for the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP); this contribution was used to prove that the …

To study the alteration and elements migration characteristics of detrital zircon in sandstone-
hosted uranium deposits, we analyzed three groups of zircon samples from the Jurassic …

Abstract The Late Triassic saw a period of broad uplift, vigorous magmatism and
supracrustal stretching in the northern North China block, but the driving mechanism has …
