DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2017.03.020
Abstract: Abstract Partial melting of ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) metamorphic rocks during continental collision has been increasingly found in nature. More and more studies have devoted to the evidence, time, mechanism and effect of crustal anataxis at mantle… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.oregeorev.2018.07.016
Abstract: Abstract The Southern Uplands-Down-Longford Terrane (SUDLT) within the British Caledonides hosts several economically significant gold occurrences, including a 45 km-long gold trend in central Ireland that includes the proven deposit at Clontibret. However, the region is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.precamres.2019.105345
Abstract: Abstract Metamorphic rocks derived from mafic rocks can be found in metamorphic belts, and their geochemical and isotopic characteristics may be valuable sources of information for interpretation of ancient geologic magmatic scenarios. The southern Brasilia… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.scib.2018.11.022
Abstract: Abstract The timing of continental collision between India and Asia has been controversial for a long time because of the difficulty in screening isotopic ages for different types of tectonothermal event along the convergent continental… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2018.01.031
Abstract: Abstract The European Alps show major along-strike variations in the partitioning of crustal shortening between the upper and the lower plates, either explained by lateral variation in temperature and rheology, or by along-strike changes in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2021.229081
Abstract: Abstract Continental collision between the Indian and Eurasian plates in the past ~55 ± 5 Ma has led to the development of the Tibetan Plateau, where nearly doubled crustal thickness indicates intense lithospheric thickening during the collision. On… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2113877119
Abstract: Significance Our regional-scale geochemical dataset (3He/4He) resolves the geometry of the continental collision between India and Asia. Geophysical images have led to contradictory interpretations that India directly underthrusts Tibet as a horizontal plate or India… read more here.

DOI: 10.1130/g45499.1
Abstract: One of the major debated aspects of the Zagros orogenic system in the Middle East is the timing of onset of continental collision between Arabia and Eurasia. The Zagros hinterland in the Kurdistan region of… read more here.
