P − T evolution of metapelitic and metamafic rocks from Northern Liaoning: Implications on the Neoarchean tectonic regime of the North China Craton
High-pressure, low-temperature metamorphism preserved in the Indus-Yarlung suture zone of the eastern Himalaya: Overprinting at amphibolite facies and comparison with occurrences in the western Himalaya
Metamorphic P–T–t evolution deciphered from episodic monazite growth in granulites of the Chencai Complex and implications for the Early Paleozoic Orogeny, West Cathaysia terrane, South China
Abstract The Early Paleozoic Orogeny in eastern South China has been highly controversial. It has been alternatively interpreted to have formed in an intra-plate setting driven by far-field tectonic forces or at plate boundaries involving subduction–collision. The West Cathaysia terrane in the core of the orogen is characterized by extensive magmatism, intense deformation and especially high-grade metamorphism. Identifying early Paleozoic high-pressure (HP) metamorphism and establishing a complete P–T–t path from the high-grade metamorphic rocks could help us understand the tectono-thermal evolution process and nature of the Early Paleozoic Orogeny. Here, we present results from a felsic granulite from the Chencai Complex in the northeastern West Cathaysia terrane. Petrographic evidence, mineral compositions and phase equilibria modelling indicate that the granulite underwent a pre-peak HP stage with P–T conditions of 13.3–14.7 kbar/696–718°C and low geothermal gradients of 13–14°C km −1 , and a peak high-temperature stage with P–T conditions of 9.7–11.0 kbar/785–820°C. A clockwise P–T path involving pre-peak decompressional heating, post-peak near-isothermal decompression and near-isobaric cooling processes was constrained for the HP felsic granulite. In situ monazite U–Pb geochronology combined with previous results date these metamorphic processes at c. 440, c. 425 and c. 400 Ma, respectively. Our new metamorphic and geochronological data from the HP felsic granulite support the case that the Early Paleozoic Orogeny was a typical collisional one.
