“…East‐west–trending Early–Middle Triassic (250–240 Ma) granitoids consist of subalkaline, peraluminous calc‐alkaline to high‐K calc‐alkaline granodiorite, quartz diorite, and monzogranite (Figure ). These findings, in conjunction with Late Permian I‐type granitoids along the SXCYS (Sun et al, ), Middle Triassic tonalites from Meng'entaolegai in the CGXR (240–234 Ma; Jiang et al, ), granodiorite in the Baiyinnuoer area (southern GXR; 245 Ma; Jiang et al, ), Early–Middle Triassic syn‐collision S‐type granitoids in Linxi (southern GXR) and Horqin Right Wing Middle Banner (CGXR; Li, Gao, et al, ; Zhang et al, ), and synchronous adakitic plutons in the Yanbian Fold Belt (251–240 Ma; Ma, Zhu, Zhou, & Qiao, ) suggest that granitoid parental magmas in this area formed by melting of thickened lower crust as a result of the amalgamation of the NE China blocks and the NCC during subduction of the Paleo‐Asian oceanic plate. This interpretation is also corroborated by the lack of marine sedimentary rocks and volcanics of Early–Middle Triassic age in the eastern CAOB (IMBGMR, ; Xiao et al, ).…”

“…In addition, Early Jurassic accretionary complexes in the Jiamusi Block was related to the subduction of the PP oceanic plate (Guo et al, and references therein). Contemporaneous N‐S–trending bimodal igneous rocks (186–182 Ma) and A‐type granitoid plutons in the Lesser Xing'an–Zhangguangcai Range (LXZR) represent an extensional environment (Ma et al, ; Yu et al, ). These evidences imply that the LXZR and the Jiamusi–Khanka blocks are mainly related to the NW‐directed subduction of the PP oceanic plate (Ma et al, ; Maruyama & Send, ).…”

“…A series of strike‐slip faults developed along the Eurasian Plate boundaries during the Late Jurassic to initial Early Cretaceous (Khanchuk, ). A simultaneous pause in volcanism at 160–135 Ma in the Jiamusi and Khanka blocks (Ma et al, ; Xu et al, ) implies north‐dipping subduction of the PP oceanic plate (Abrajevitch, Zyabrev, Didenko, & Kodama, ; Maruyama & Send, ). This conclusion is also supported by a lack of contemporaneous magmatism in the Songnen, Jiamusi, and Khanka blocks (Tang, Xu, et al, ; Xu et al, ).…”

“…During the late Early Cretaceous (138–115 Ma), the north‐northwestward subduction of the PP oceanic plate resumed beneath the Eurasian continent (Ma et al, ; Maruyama, Isozaki, Kimura, & Terabayashi, ). This change is evident from (a) the presence of calc‐alkaline volcanic rocks in the Jiamusi and Khanka blocks and the Songliao back‐arc basin (Wang et al, ; Wang, Liu, Wang, & Song, ; Xu et al, ; Zhang et al, ); (b) Cu–Au–Mo deposits that are present in the eastern parts of the Jiamusi and Khanka blocks and the northern NCC (Figure d; Chen, Zhang, et al, ; Ge et al, ); (c) metamorphic core complexes (128–118 Ma) in the Liaonan region that are consistent with an extensional environment (Yang et al, ); and (d) large volumes of coeval igneous rock (calc‐alkaline and adakitic rocks and accretionary complexes) that stretch from the Jiamusi and Khanka blocks to Japan (Safonova & Santosh, ; Wilde, Wu, & Zhao, ; Wu et al, ; Zhou et al, ).…”

Timing and evolution of Mesozoic volcanism in the central Great Xing'an Range, northeastern China

et al. 2018

In this paper, we report on LA‐ICP‐MS zircon U–Pb dates of 14 Mesozoic volcanic rocks from the central Great Xing'an Range (CGXR). These data are integrated with the temporal and spatial distribution of local magmatism‐related Mesozoic mineralization, in an effort to develop an understanding of the geodynamic evolution of the region. Periodic magmatic events in the GXR date from ~1,703 through ~145 Ma. Mesozoic volcanism in the CGXR can be subdivided into three episodes: Triassic (250–205 Ma), Early–Middle Jurassic (182–165 Ma), and Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous (155–115 Ma). A revision of the previously defined volcanic sequence is offered using a combination of our zircon U–Pb ages and published Mesozoic geological and geophysical evidence from northeast China. We propose that (a) Early–Middle Triassic volcanism in the CGXR resulted from subduction of the Paleo‐Asian oceanic plate; (b) Late Triassic volcanism was related to subduction of the Mongol–Okhotsk oceanic plate (especially near the Erguna Block) and subsequent extension after the closure of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean; (c) Early–Middle Jurassic volcanism was mainly controlled by the southward subduction of the Mongol–Okhotsk oceanic plate; (d) Late Jurassic–initial Early Cretaceous magmatism was initiated by closure of the Mongol–Okhotsk Ocean; and (e) late Early Cretaceous volcanism was induced following the final closure of the Mongol–Okhotsk Ocean and rollback of the Paleo‐Pacific oceanic plate.

“…Although the transformation time of the two tectonic regimes is still debated, it is generally accepted that the study area was associated with subduction of the Paleo-Pacific plate (Izanagi plate) during the Mesozoic 7,33,34 . The temporal–spatial distribution of Mesozoic granitoids and volcanic rocks in the Yanbian area demonstrates that an arc front migrated oceanwards, probably as a result of roll-back of the subducted Pacific plate (Izanagi plate) 9,35,36 . During the late Mesozoic, the presence of early Cretaceous A-type granite and alkali rhyolite 37 , metamorphic core complexes 38,39 , typical bimodal igneous rock association 40 , and the development of extensional basin (Songliao Basin) 41 suggest that the whole NE China was in an extensional setting.…”

The Jinchang gold deposit has been extensively studied, but precise dates for its formation are debated. Native gold mainly occurs as inclusions within pyrite and quartz. In this study, we analysed quartz crystals coeval with gold precipitation from two different types of mineralization using the ArgusVI multi-collector noble gas mass spectrometer by the stepwise crushing technique to resolve the timing and genesis of gold mineralization. 40Ar/39Ar dating of quartz samples (J12Q) from breccia ore yields a plateau age of 109.87 ± 0.86 Ma, and an inverse isochron age of 109.87 ± 0.88 Ma. Quartz samples (J18Q) from vein ore yields a slightly younger plateau age of 107.76 ± 0.85 Ma, with an inverse isochron age of 107.76 ± 0.92 Ma. These dates place the ore-forming age of the Jinchang gold deposit at 107~110 Ma, much younger than previously published radiometric ages, suggesting the gold mineralization is spatio-temporally associated with the granite porphyry. The formation of the Jinchang gold deposit is consistent with the regional late Mesozoic porphyry-epithermal gold mineralization event in the Yanbian-Dongning area. Finally, our study shows that 40Ar/39Ar of quartz can be used as a powerful tool to date the formation ages of hydrothermal ore deposits.

Detrital zircon U–Pb dating and Hf isotope study of late Palaeozoic sedimentary rocks in central–eastern Jilin Province, NE China: Constraints for tectonic evolution of the eastern segment of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean

et al. 2019

This paper reports in situ U–Pb ages and Hf isotopic data on detrital zircons from Palaeozoic strata in central‐eastern Jilin Province, NE China, with the aim of constraining the timing of final closure of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean and the tectonic evolution of the eastern segment of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB). Zircons from Middle to Late Permian Fanjiatun and Yangjiagou formations in central Jilin Province are characterized by four major groups of age populations (2.5–2.3 Ga, 1.9–1.7 Ga, 1.3–1.0 Ga, and Late Palaeozoic ages). The Paleo‐Mesoproterozoic and Cambrian zircons have positive εHf(t) values, suggesting that the source was mainly locally derived from the CAOB, whereas a lesser amount of Archean zircons with positive εHf(t) values, indicating that source from the North China Craton (NCC). The Phanerozoic zircons have both positive and negative εHf(t) values indicates that material from bidirectional provenances in the CAOB and the NCC. However, Late Permian Kaishantun Formation in eastern Jilin Province contain a single group of Phanerozoic zircons with positive εHf(t) values, distinct from known igneous zircons in the NCC, suggesting a local source. These observations, along with the results of previous studies on Middle–Late Permian igneous rocks in Jilin Province, indicate that the eastern segment of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean underwent the initial closure in central Jilin Province during the Middle Permian and the final closure in eastern Jilin Province in the Late Permian–Early Triassic. The detrital zircon geochronological data clearly record two stages of tectonic evolution and the scissor‐like closure model of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean in the eastern segment of the CAOB.
