Precambrian Geology of ChinaThe Precambrian Tectonic Evolution of the Tarim Craton

Precambrian Geology of China: The Precambrian Tectonic Evolution of the Tarim Craton [The Precambrian tectonic evolution of the Tarim craton is preliminarily divided into seven important development phases, including initial crustal growth, the first extension phase of continental crust, cratonization, stable intracratonic sedimentation, formation of fold basement, mantle plume activity and subduction of oceanic crust, and continental rift activity and passive continental margin sedimentation. Isotope research indicates that significant crustal growth occurred in the Mesoarchean and Neoarchean. Four important magmatism phases are 2.36–2.55, 1.80–2.02, 0.86–1.14, and 0.68–0.84 Ga.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[The Precambrian tectonic evolution of the Tarim craton is preliminarily divided into seven important development phases, including initial crustal growth, the first extension phase of continental crust, cratonization, stable intracratonic sedimentation, formation of fold basement, mantle plume activity and subduction of oceanic crust, and continental rift activity and passive continental margin sedimentation. Isotope research indicates that significant crustal growth occurred in the Mesoarchean and Neoarchean. Four important magmatism phases are 2.36–2.55, 1.80–2.02, 0.86–1.14, and 0.68–0.84 Ga.]
