  • Magmatic Records of the Late Paleoproterozoic to Neoproterozoic 14 Extensional and Rifting Events in the North China Craton: a Preliminary Review
    Magmatic Records of the Late Paleoproterozoic to Neoproterozoic 14 Extensional and Rifting Events in the North China Craton: A Preliminary Review Shuan-Hong Zhang and Yue Zhao Abstract The North China Craton (NCC) is characterized by multistages of extensional and continental rifting and deposition of thick marine or interactive marine and terrestrial clastic and carbonate platform sediments without angular unconformity during Earth’s middle age of 1.70–0.75 Ga. Factors controlling these multistages of extensional and continental rifting events in the NCC can be either from the craton itself or from the neighboring continents being connected during these periods. Two large igneous provinces including the ca. 1.32 Ga mafic sill swarms in Yanliao rift (aulacogen) in the northern NCC and the ca. 0.92–0.89 Ga Xu-Huai–Dalian–Sariwon mafic sill swarms in southeastern and eastern NCC, have recently been identified from the NCC. Rocks from these two large igneous provinces exhibit similar geochemical features of tholeiitic compositions and intraplate characteristics. Formation of these two large igneous provinces was accompanied by pre-magmatic uplift as indicated by the field relations between the sills and their hosted sedimentary rocks. The Yanliao and Xu-Huai–Dalian–Sariwon large igneous provinces represent two continental rifting events that have led to rifting to drifting transition and breakup of the northern margin of the NCC from the Columbia (Nuna) supercontinent and the southeastern margin of the NCC from the Rodinia supercontinent, respectively. As shown by the ca. 200 Ma Central Atlantic Magmatic Province related to breakup of the Pangea supercontinent and initial opening of the Central Atlantic Ocean and the ca.

D. EVANS Department of Geology & Geophysics, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520-8109, USA (e-mail: [email protected]) Abstract: Palaeomagnetic apparent polar wander (APW) paths from the world’s cratons at 1300–700 Ma can constrain the palaeogeographic possibilities for a long-lived and all-inclusive Rodinia supercontinent. Laurentia’s APW path is the most complete and forms the basis for super- position by other cratons’ APW paths to identify possible durations of those cratons’ inclusion in Rodinia, and also to generate reconstructions that are constrained both in latitude and longitude relative to Laurentia. Baltica reconstructs adjacent to the SE margin of Greenland, in a standard and geographically ‘upright’ position, between c. 1050 and 600 Ma. Australia reconstructs adja- cent to the pre-Caspian margin of Baltica, geographically ‘inverted’ such that cratonic portions of Queensland are juxtaposed with that margin via collision at c. 1100 Ma. Arctic North America reconstructs opposite to the CONgo þ Sa˜o Francisco craton at its DAmaride–Lufilian margin (the ‘ANACONDA’ fit) throughout the interval 1235–755 Ma according to palaeomag- netic poles of those ages from both cratons, and the reconstruction was probably established during the c.

Available online xxx These TTG gneisses are characterized by high contents of SiO2 (68.3–71.6%), Al2O3 (15.3–16.9%), Na2O (4.43–4.85%), low K2O/Na2O ratios (0.20–0.37) and a very low HREE content (Yb < 1 ppm) and show two- Keywords: stage Nd isotope model ages of ∼3.06–2.84 Ga. Zircon U–Pb analyses reveal that these TTG gneisses were TTG ∼ Archean formed 2.7–2.6 Ga ago, as shown by inherited magmatic zircon cores, and were later altered by Paleo- proterozoic (∼2.0–1.9 Ga) and early Paleozoic (∼430 Ma) high-grade metamorphic events.
