FOREARC MANTLE METASOMATISM BY 11B-DEPLETED FLUIDS FROM A HIGHLY DEHYDRATED SLAB: A SNAPSHOT OF SLAB ROLL-BACK?
Published 2017-09-01Get full textAccretionary orogens form along convergent plate margins due to the ongoing subduction of oceanic lithosphere, and comprise accretionary prisms, magmatic arcs, back-arc domains, ophiolitic mélanges and possibly oceanic plateaus and continental fragments [Condie, 2007; Cawood et al., 2009]. Based on...

HYBRID ACCRETIONARY/COLLISIONAL MECHANISM OF PALEOZOIC ASIAN CONTINENTAL GROWTH: NEW PLATE TECTONIC PERSPECTIVE
Published 2017-09-01Get full textContinental crust is formed above subduction zones by well-known process of “juvenile crust growth”. This new crust is in modern Earth assembled into continents by two ways: (i) short-lived collisions of continental blocks with the Laurussian or later Eurasian continent along the “Alpine Himalayan c...

MELTING OF ACCRETIONARY WEDGE AND BUILDING MATURE CONTINENTAL CRUST: INSIGHTS FROM THE MAGMATIC EVOLUTION OF THE CHINESE ALTAI OROGEN, CENTRAL ASIA
Published 2017-09-01Get full textTectonic-magmatic reworking of accretionary wedges is a key process responsible for differentiation and stabilization of continental crustal in accretionary orogens. This generic problem can be exemplified by magmatic evolution of the Chinese Altai which represents a high-grade core of the world...

GEODYNAMICS OF THE KAZAKHSTAN OROCLINE, CENTRAL ASIA
Published 2017-09-01Get full textCurved mountain belts, commonly referred as to oroclines that result from bending of quasi-linear orogenic belts, have fascinated generations of geologists. Such structures are widely recognized in modern and ancient orogens, and are fundamentally important for understanding geodynamics of convergen...
