“…This point of view has long been held till present because Precambrian ages were recently reported, but majority of the reported Precambrian ages were obtained from detrital zircons in (e.g. Meng et al, 2010;Han et al, 2011;Wang et al, , 2014Zhou and Wilde, 2013), with a few from magmatic ones in magmatic rocks (Pei et al, 2007;Tang et al, 2013;Sun et al, 2013). On the other hand, some recent studies demonstrated that the metamorphic complexes themselves are not as old as of previously inferred.…”

The Late Palaeozoic Solonker‐Xar Moron‐Changchun‐Yanji Suture (SXCYS) is considered to mark the location of the final closure of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean, which separated the North China Craton to the south and the amalgamated blocks to the north in Northeast China. There has always been controversy about its eastern extension in Northeast China and the final closure time of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean. To explore this issue, we collected gabbro and quartz‐diorite samples in the Hunchun area for the genesis of mafic magma and age dating, and five groups of Permian to Triassic sandstones belonging to both sides of the potential suture locations in the middle and east Jilin Province for the provenance analysis to discuss the final closure time of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean and the possible positions of the eastward termination of the SXCYS. The gabbro reveals a Middle Permian concordia average age of 266.9 ± 5.2 Ma, and the quartz diorite reveals a Late Permian Concordia average age of 258.8 ± 4.8 Ma. Lithological and geochemical analysis reveal the two rock samples belong to low‐K arc tholeiites from the oceanic island and calk‐alkaline volcanics from the active continental margin, respectively, which implies that during the middle to late Permian, the SW margin of the Jiamusi–Khanka Block (JB) continuously experienced the subduction process from the Paleo‐Asian Ocean Plate. The final closure time of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean should be later than the Late Permian. Meanwhile, four groups of sandstone from the east Jilin reveal typically Jiamusi–Mongolia Block (JMB) provenance features, with age components of ~500 Ma, ~0.9–1.5 Ga implying that the Wangqing, Hunchun, Kaishantun area belongs to the northern part of the SXCYS from late Early Permian to Middle Triassic, with youngest age components of 288.2 ± 2.8, 275.5 ± 1.8, 250 ± 1.7, and 244.9 ± 1.7 Ma, respectively. The late Early Permian sandstone from the middle Jilin reveals the youngest age component of 273.8 ± 3.4 Ma and the age component of 487 ± 3 Ma also revealing JMB feature. Comparing to previous studies, we propose that the Paleo‐Asian Ocean finally closed during Middle to Late Triassic. A possible ENE fault separates the eastern extension of SXCYS into two parts, which means the possible position of the eastward extension of the SXCYS should go along the Wangqing‐Kaishantun with NNW direction in the west, Hunchun‐Laoheishan with NW direction in the east.

“…The eastern Central Asian Orogenic Belt can be further divided into five blocks, from west to east, they are the Erguna Block, Xing'an Block, Songliao Block, Xingkai‐Jiamusi‐Bulieya Block, and the Shikhode‐Alin accretionary complex (Figure a; Wu, Walker, Ren, Sun, & Zhou, ; Zhou et al, ). These blocks are situated between the North China and Siberian cratons and formed during the closure of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean and the subsequent collisional stages of the late Permian (Han et al, ; Jian et al, ; Li, ). During the Mesozoic era, the paleo‐Pacific Plate subducted beneath the Asian continent and led to stretching of the Xing‐Meng Orogenic Belt (Liu et al, ; Meng, ) and the subsequent intense volcanic and magmatic activities across the region (Han et al, ; Jian et al, ; Li, ; Liu et al, ; Meng, ; Xiao & Kusky, ).…”

For example, the Yanshanian NE structure‐controlled granites, which derived from juvenile, mafic lower continental crust and characterized by low initial ( 87 Sr/ 86 Sr) i ratios and positive ε Nd (t), have a close correlation with metallogenesis from Jurassic to Cretaceous periods in the Xing‐Meng Orogenic Belt (Li, ).…”

Garnet composition as an indicator of skarn formation: LA‐ICP‐MS and EPMA studies on oscillatory zoned garnets from the Haobugao skarn deposit, Inner Mongolia, China

Oscillatory zoned garnets are widespread in the Haobugao skarn‐type copper–lead–zinc–iron polymetallic deposit, and they can record garnet growing process in the early stages of metallogenesis. In order to investigate the skarn‐forming process and hydrothermal fluid evolution of the Haobugao deposit, major, trace, and rare earth element (REE) contents of oscillatory zoned garnets were analysed by electron probe microscope analysis (EPMA) and laser‐ablation inductively‐coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS) techniques. Three distinct generations of garnets were identified: the first generation garnets (Grt I) are Fe‐rich, euhedral, fine‐ to coarse‐grained, isotropic, show characteristic concentric oscillatory zoning, and have light rare earth element (LREE)‐enriched and heavy rare earth element (HREE)‐depleted REE patterns, with strong positive Eu anomalies and low ΣREE concentrations. The second generation garnets (Grt II) are Al‐rich, anhedral to subhedral, anisotropic, with abundant oscillatory zoning alone the growth lines, and have LREE‐depleted and HREE‐enriched REE patterns, with negligible Eu anomalies and relatively higher ΣREE concentrations. The third generation garnets (Grt III) are anhedral, anisotropic and generally occurred at the rim of pre‐existing Grt I or beside fractures that cut through the pre‐existing Grt I crystals. All these three generations garnets show oscillatory zoning under an optical microscope and have different compositions from each other, but there's limited chemical zoning (such as bell‐shaped zoning of major elements) in each individual garnet crystal. The texture and composition characteristics of the garnets indicate that the Grt I is precipitated rapidly from high temperature and oxidized magmatic fluids by advective metasomatism, in a high water/rock ratio condition; the Grt II is precipitated from low temperature residual fluids that were in equilibrium with the host rock by diffusive metasomatism, in a low water/rock ratio condition; and the Grt III is formed by retrograde hydrothermal‐metasomatic alteration of pre‐existing garnets. The incorporation of REE into garnet is controlled by its crystal chemistry and fluid composition, dominated by the YAG (yttrium aluminium garnet) ‐type substitution mechanism ()X2+−1VIIIREE3++1VIIISi4+−1IVZ3++1IV.
