Multiple Tethyan ocean basins and orogenic belts in Asia
I Metcalfe - Gondwana Research, 2021 - Elsevier
Four Tethyan ocean basins are recognised in Asia, the Proto-Tethys (Late Proterozoic-

Mercury isotope evidence for the importance of recycled fluids in collisional ore systems
The sources of fluids and metals in porphyry systems of continental-collision settings are
poorly constrained. Mercury isotopes display unique mass-independent fractionation …

Precambrian origin of the North Lhasa terrane, Tibetan Plateau: Constraint from early Cryogenian back-arc magmatism
The origin of ancient continental blocks in the Tibetan plateau and their paleogeographic
locations in the Rodinia supercontinent remain enigmatic. Here, we report the early …

A downgoing Indian lithosphere control on along-strike variability of porphyry mineralization in the Gangdese belt of southern Tibet
The E-trending Gangdese porphyry copper belt in southern Tibet is a classic example of
porphyry mineralization in a continental collision zone. New zircon U-Pb geochronological …

Subduction initiation at the Solomon back‐arc basin: Contributions from both island arc rheological strength and oceanic plateau collision
It is generally accepted that the subduction polarity reversal (SPR) results from the strong
collision of two plates. Yet, the SPR of the Solomon Back‐arc Basin is started in the “soft …

Middle Neoproterozoic (ca. 760 Ma) arc and back-arc system in the North Lhasa terrane, Tibet, inferred from coeval N-MORB-and arc-type gabbros
Abstract The North and South Lhasa terranes in the central Tibetan Plateau were
traditionally considered to be one block in the Precambrian and originate from the …

Ediacaran magmatism and rifting along the northern margin of the Tarim craton: Implications for the late Neoproterozoic Rodinia configuration and breakup
The Tarim craton in modern Central Asia was an important component of the supercontinent

Neoproterozoic sedimentary rocks track the location of the Lhasa Block during the Rodinia breakup
Cimmerian terranes in Tibet are thought to be as old as Archean or as young as
Neoproterozoic or even early Paleozoic in age. However, their Precambrian history and their …
