Geochronology and geochemistry of late Silurian-early Devonian mafic-ultramafic complexes in the eastern section of Qilian block, NW China: Implications for late early Paleozoic tectonic evolution of the Qilian orogeny belt
Abstract:<p>Field relationships, mineralogy, petrology, geochemistry, geochronology, and Nd-Hf-O isotopes of the mafic-ultramafic rocks from the east part of the Qilian block are studied in the present work. The Aganzhen intrusive body only exposed in the Zhigoumen, Shiguanzi, Xianggoumen outcrops and includes Hornblende peridotite, wehrlite, olivine-bearing pyroxenite, hornblende-bearing pyroxenite, websterite, clinopyroxenite, hornblendite, olivine-bearing gabbro. The gabbroic rocks are also layered or … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
