“…The southernmost unit of the Beishan Orogen is the Shibanshan terrain. Some researchers regarded the Shibanshan terrain is a continental arc along the northern margin of the Dunhuang Block formed by the southward subduction of the PAO (Xiao et al, 2010; Zuo, Zhang, He, & Zhang, 1991), which developed at least by the beginning of Late Cambrian to Early Ordovician (Tian & Xiao, 2019). And some other people considered it as a Mesoproterozoic microcontinent amalgamated in the Beishan Orogen (He, Klemd, Yan, & Zhang, 2018; He, Sun, Mao, Zong, & Zhang, 2015; He, Zong, Jiang, Xiang, & Zhang, 2014; Jiang, He, Zong, Zhang, & Zhao, 2013; Yuan et al, 2015).…”
