There are significant differences of Nd and Pb isotopic compositions between Mesozoic mafic igneous rocks from the North China Block (NCB) and the South China Block (SCB). Mesozoic mantle-derived igneous rocks from the North China Block have very low Nd values ( 15 to 21), and 206 Pb/ 204 Pb ratios (< 17.9), while those in the SCB are characterized by Nd > 10 and 206 Pb/ 204 Pb > 18.3. The very low Nd values ( 16 to 20) and 206 Pb/ 204 Pb ratios (< 17.3) of the early Cretaceous mafic-ultramafic intrusions developed in the north part of the Dabie orogen (NDZ) suggest that the deep lithosphere underneath the NDZ belongs to the NCB but not the SCB. Therefore, although the surface suture between the NCB and SCB is located on the north side of the NDZ, the subsurface suture between the NCB and SCB should be located to the south side of the NDZ. This is consistent with the previous suggestion that the subsurface suture in the Sulu terrane east of the Tanlu fault was the south displacement, but contradictory to northward continental subduction of the SCB. A continent-collisional lithosphericwedging model can interpret the decoupling of the surface and subsurface sutures in the Dabie-Sulu orogen. After slab break-off, the continuing convergence of two continental blocks must increase the compression force acting on the suture zone, which might induce the lithosphere splitting of SCB. Thus, the lower crust and lithospheric mantle on the south margin of the NCB can wedge into the north margin of the lithosphere of the SCB along the Dabie-Sulu collision zone. This process caused the overthrust of the mid-upper continental crust with exhumed ultrahigh pressure metamorphic (UHPM) rocks and underthrust of the deep lithosphere of the SCB. It could be an important mechanism responsible for the second rapid cooling and uplifting of the UHPM rocks and lithospheric delamination as well as the corresponding magmatism in Jurassic in the Dabie orogen. The southward movement of subsurface suture in the Dabie-Sulu orogen may also provide a tectonic setting in depth for the large-scale Mesozoic magmatic-metallogenesis along the middle-lower reaches of the Yangtse River in eastern China.

O Complexo Máfico-Ultramáfico Mata Grande, localizado no município de São Sepé, porção NW do Escudo Sul-rio-grandense, é uma intrusão acamadada com cerca de 5 km2 que mantém contatos por meio de falhas normais com gnaisses do Complexo Cambaí ao SW, com os xistos magnesianos e serpentinitos do Complexo Arroio Lajeadinho a SE e com as rochas sedimentares da Bacia do Paraná a N. Neste trabalho foram descritas três unidades de rochas cumuláticas: Unidade Máfica (UM), Unidade Ultramá- fica (UUM) e Unidade Transicional (UT). A principal estrutura primária identificada nessas unidades é um acamamento composicional/textural milimétrico a centimétrico e uma intercalação de camadas em escalas de afloramento e regional. As rochas da UM cristalizaram a partir da acumulação de cristais de plagioclásio e, em menor proporção, de olivina, além de fases minerais intercúmulus, que representam de 24 % a 41 % de líquido intersticial aprisionado nesta acumulação. Na UT, a acumulação de plagioclásio e olivina ocorreu em proporções muito próximas, com uma menor proporção do líquido aprisionado (cerca de 15 %). As amostras da UUM evidenciam uma acumulação principal de olivina com plagioclásio intercúmulus mais uma proporção do líquido intersticial (20 %). Todas as unidades do Complexo Mata Grande são afetadas pelo metamorfismo de contato causado pelo Granito São Sepé, sob condições de temperatura equivalentes às das fácies albita-epidoto hornfels e hornblenda hornfels. Feições de deformação subsolidus indicam um processo de compactação durante a fase final de cristalização e resfriamento.
