High-Pressure Granulites (Retrograded Eclogites) from the Hengshan Complex, North China Craton: Petrology and Tectonic Implications
Both highand medium-pressure granulites have been found as because of the absence of modal minerals. The combination of petrographic textures, mineral compositions, metamorphic reaction enclaves and boudins in tonalitic–trondhjemitic–granodioritic gneisses in the Hengshan Complex. Petrological evidence from these history, petrogenetic grids and thermobarometric data defines a nearrocks indicate...
متن کاملMetamorphism of basement rocks in the Central Zone of the North China Craton: implications for Paleoproterozoic tectonic evolution
Lithological, structural, metamorphic and geochronological data for the North China Craton enable its division into the Western and Eastern Blocks of Archean to Paleoproterozoic age separated by a north–south trending Paleoproterozoic orogenic belt: the Central Zone. The Central Zone is divisible into a series of lowto medium-grade granite–greenstone belts and high-grade metamorphic terrains co...
متن کاملPaleoproterozoic high-pressure metamorphism in the northern North China Craton and implications for the Nuna supercontinent
The connection between the North China Craton (NCC) and contiguous cratons is important for the configuration of the Nuna supercontinent. Here we document a new Paleoproterozoic high-pressure (HP) complex dominated by garnet websterite on the northern margin of the NCC. The peak metamorphism of the garnet websterite was after ∼1.90 Ga when it was subducted to eclogite facies at ∼2.4 GPa, then e...
متن کاملReactivation of an Archean craton: Constraints from P- and S-wave tomography in North China
[1] The unusual reactivation of the North China Craton (NCC) challenges the classical views concerning the strength and stability of cratonic lithosphere. By using teleseismic body-waves recorded at 250 seismic stations, this paper presents high-resolution North China Models of Pand S-wave velocity based on finite-frequency kernel tomography. Both Pand S-wave velocity models reveal that: (1) an...
متن کاملThe role of serpentine in preferential craton formation in the late Archean by lithosphere underthrusting
Cratons form the cores of continents and were formed within a narrow window of time (2.5–3.2 Gy ago), the majority having remained stable ever since. Petrologic evidence suggests that the thick mantle roots underlying cratons were built by underthrusting of oceanic and arc lithosphere, but paradoxically this requires that the building blocks of cratons are weak even though cratons must have bee...
