The upper Palaeozoic succession (Pyeongan Supergroup) in central eastern Korea is well correlated with the equivalent successions distributed in North China, suggestive of the Korean upper Palaeozoic being part of the Sino-Korean Block. Detrital zircon U–Pb ages and Sm–Nd isotope compositions of the Pyeongan Supergroup in the Samcheok coalfield of the Taebaeksan Basin were analysed. A single predominant zircon age peak at c. 1.9 Ga (> 70%) is marked in all sedimentary units, followed by varying amounts of minor late Palaeozoic grains (up to 30%). The rarity of Meso- to Neoproterozoic- and Silurian-aged zircons confirms that sediment influx from the South China and Qinling blocks was insignificant. The 2.0–1.8 Ga-dominated zircon age pattern and the Nd isotope composition (average εNd(0) = −15.5±4.0) of the Pyeongan Supergroup most closely reflect the signature of the Yeongnam Massif basements, which supports a previous hypothesis that the Pyeongan Supergroup was mostly derived from a palaeo-orogen located to the east–southeast. Relatively higher εNd(0) values (> −10.1) in the lowermost and the upper parts of the succession are closely matched by the increased occurrence of syn-depositional-aged zircons, which indicates considerable mixing of juvenile materials at c. 320 Ma and 260 Ma. Both arc-related magmatic events are interpreted to have been related to oceanic subduction, suggesting that the eastern margin of the Sino-Korean Block was an active continental margin during late Palaeozoic times.

This age combination of granitoids has been never detected in the rest of Japan, except for a small domain in SW Japan along the Japan Sea coast (Tsutsumi et al, 2017). The protoliths of the gneissose rocks are also unique in possessing impure marble and calc-silicate rocks (Harada, Tsujimori, Kon, et al, 2021;Harada, Tsujimori, Kunugiza, et al, 2021;Isozaki, 1997;Kano, 1998;Suwa, 1990), which are different from other gneissose rocks in Japan.…”

“…Orange star: co-occurrence of Permo-Triassic and Jurassic granitoids near Mt. Daisen along the Japan Sea coast, SW Japan (Tsutsumi et al, 2017) as a product of the final suturing between the Songliao and Jiamusi blocks (e.g., Li et al, 2023;Wu et al, 2007). On the contrary, Khanchuk et al (2022) interpreted that the sporadically exposed Heilongjian complex corresponds to the western extension of the Jurassic accretionary complex of the Samarka belt in Primorye (and of the Nadanhada belt in Heilongjian), which occurs as isolated tectonic windows beneath the Jiamusi basement, thus totally independent of the suturing between Songliao and Jiamusi blocks.…”

To identify the origin of the Hida belt in central Japan, geochemistry and U–Pb age of zircons were analyzed for the extra‐large granitoid boulders in the Lower Cretaceous fluvial conglomerate of the Jinzu Group. This study clarified that the boulders of granitoids have geochemistry of typical A‐type granite, as characterized by high Nb + Y and high Ta + Yb values. U–Pb ages of igneous zircons from three individual granite boulders are concentrated at ca. 220 Ma (Late Triassic). As to Late Triassic A‐type granites, there is no corresponding body previously recognized within Japan, whereas identical A‐type granites occur in the eastern Songliao block on the immediate west of the Jiamusi block in NE China. The large size of boulders and the fluvial facies of the hosting conglomerate indicate their origin in the Hida belt per se, suggesting the cryptic and/or past occurrence of A‐type granite, rather than in NE China. Together with the eastern Songliao block (China), Laoelin‐Grodekov (LG) belt (Primorye, Russia), and Yamato Ridge (Japan Sea), the Hida belt forms a unique domain on the immediate west of GSC in Far East Asia, which is characterized commonly by the co‐occurrence of Permo‐Triassic and Jurassic granitoids, and probably with Late Triassic A‐type granite. These confirm that Hida belt represents an allochthonous unit tectonically emplaced onto the rest of Japan, which is composed of the Phanerozoic subduction‐related orogenic belt (Nipponides) developed along the Pacific side of Greater South China (GSC) since the Cambrian. For emphasizing a major geotectonic boundary of the Mesozoic granitoid provinces in Far East Asia, we propose the Yamato tectonic line between the easternmost Central Asian orogenic belt and GSC/Nipponides, which is traced for up to 3000 km from the Russia/China/North Korea border to SW Japan.
