“…High velocity anomalies are dominant beneath the SLB in the mid-and-lower crust, which probably reflects the mafic intrusions associated with the rifting process (Zhang et al, 2011). In the uppermost mantle, velocity is still high beneath the SLB region.…”

“…Sedimentation is characterised by coarse-grained continental deposits with calc-alkaline volcanic rocks that yielded a ca. 155 Ma age for the onset of sedimentation in the Songliao, Erlian, Hailar, Yingen or East Gobi basins (see references in Ren et al, 2002;Meng, 2003;Zhang et al, 2010aZhang et al, , 2011Li et al, 2012a). Besides, the extensional character of the basins framework is attested by their overall half-graben geometry as displayed on seismic profiles.…”

In East Asia, widespread extensional sedimentary basins together with the close association of Metamorphic Core Complexes and magmatism are prominent features of the large-scale wide rift system developed during late Mesozoic times. This region thus appears as a proper place to study continental extension as well as questions about the link between continental extension and magmatism. This paper primarily provides pioneer exhumation time-constraints on the Linglong MCC (Jiaodong Peninsula) including cooling and deformation ages. MCC cooling at mid-crustal levels occurred at ca. 143 Ma. Besides, last ductile deformation occurred at ca. 134 Ma while final exhumation stages, under brittle 2 conditions, occurred as late as ca. 128 Ma. Continuous crustal stretching were then recorded by the emplacement of a synkinematic pluton in the upper crust at ca. 128 Ma that cooled fast below an intracrustal shear zone crossing the ductile-brittle transition at ca. 123 Ma. The ca. 120-118 Ma age cluster is ascribed to the fast cooling of undeformed plutons marking the end of extension that lasted, in the area, over a minimum period of ca. 30 My. Combining other MCC exhumation constraints and the onset of subsidence in the sedimentary basins, total duration of late Mesozoic extension in East Asia could be estimated at ca. 60 My, related with a rather long process for extension from 160 to at least 100 Ma. East Asian continental extension is heterogeneously distributed in space and time as revealed by fundamental differences between two end-member classes of migmatite-cored MCC already described in other wide rift systems. Extension seems to have first favoured partial melting which subsequently, in turn, maintained continental extension.

“…Evidence for Paleo-Pacific plate subduction and subsequent related processes is provided by (1) the linear distribution of Mesozoic igneous rocks in NE China and adjacent regions parallel to the NNE-oriented Asian continental margin J.H. Zhang et al, 2008;Zhang et al, 2010Zhang et al, , 2011 (2) development of Jurassic-Cretaceous accretionary complexes along the Asian continental margin (Kojima, 1989;Faure and Natal'in, 1992;Maruyama et al, 1997;Zhou et al, 2009;Isozaki et al, 2010); and (3) geophysical data that reveal a stagnant subducted slab at a depth of 660 km forming a high velocity layer beneath eastern China (Fukao et al, 1992;Van der Voo et al, 1999;Huang and Zhao, 2006).…”
