Abstract: Abstract The Jiao–Liao–Ji belt (JLJB) of the North China Craton is commonly regarded to have been involved in the global-scale collisional events that led to the amalgamation of the Columbia/Nuna supercontinent during the late Paleoproterozoic.… 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: 10.1029/2020tc006532
Abstract: The continental collision between India and Asia has been ongoing since early Eocene time, but the orogenic record is typically dominated by Miocene and younger deformation and metamorphism that largely overprinted earlier Eocene‐Oligocene events. This… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.aba6342
Abstract: Crustal thickening primes the magmatic conditions to make porphyry Cu deposits. Porphyry ore deposits, Earth’s most important resources of copper, molybdenum, and rhenium, are strongly associated with felsic magmas showing signs of high-pressure differentiation and… read more here.
