Abstract: Abstract The high-grade metamorphic terrane in the Badu region along the northeastern Cathaysia Block in South China preserves retrograded eclogites and mafic granulites. Here we present the petrology, mineral phase equilibria and P-T conditions based… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Mesozoic granitoids are widely distributed in South China, but the mechanism for generating the felsic magmas is still in debate. To understand the possible origin of the granitoids, we use joint inversion methods and… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Jurassic (ca. 150 Ma) Daoxian basalts from the western Cathaysia block (South China) entrained a suite of deep-seated crustal xenoliths, including felsic schist, gneiss and granulite, and mafic two-pyroxene granulite and metagabbro. Zircon U–Pb–Hf isotopic,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2021.228981
Abstract: Abstract To better constrain the heat source of the geothermal system and lithospheric thinning mechanism of the Paleo-Pacific subduction zone, data from 35 broadband magnetotelluric (MT) stations were collected in 2020 along a 180-km-long NW-trending… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0171536
Abstract: The Cathaysia Block is located in southeastern part of South China, which situates in the west Pacific subduction zone. It is thought to have undergone a compression-extension transition of the continental crust during Mesozoic-Cenozoic during… read more here.
