DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2019.104129
Abstract: Abstract Triassic aluminous A-type granitoids, mostly peraluminous biotite granites, occur in various areas in the South China Block. Here, we focus biotite granites from three plutons and one granitic dike that provide new insights into… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2020.104609
Abstract: Abstract It is thought that the North China Block collided with Pangea earlier than the closure of the Mianlue Ocean between the South and North China Blocks. Therefore, the closure of the Mianlue Ocean, which… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.lithos.2020.105886
Abstract: Abstract Mesozoic granites are common in the south-central margin of the North China Block, beneath which the North Qinling microcontinent was subducted northwards in the early Paleozoic to subarc depths for ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) metamorphism. Although… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2020.228592
Abstract: Abstract A large plateau can be produced by crustal thickening in convergent zones such as continental collision belts and Andean-type subduction zones, but the life cycles of such plateaux are not well-understood. In particular, it… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2019tc005516
Abstract: In the Cretaceous, the subduction of the Izanagi/Paleo‐Pacific plates beneath the South China Block (SCB) created a wide back‐arc domain characterized by numerous extensional basins coeval with voluminous magmatism. The SCB witnessed the whole evolution… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2020gl090282
Abstract: The South China Block (SCB) has been regarded by many as an integral part of Gondwana, but proposed timing and processes for its accretion to Gondwana vary and remain contentious, largely owing to the lack… read more here.
