The Jinghong mafic–ultramafic complex, exposed in the eastern margin of the Lancangjiang tectonic belt, is related to the subduction of the Paleo‐Tethys Ocean. Its petrogenesis plays a key role in constraining the tectonic evolution of the eastern Paleo‐Tethys Ocean in southwestern China. In this study, we present petrological, geochemical and geochronological results of the Jinghong complex rocks, in order to decipher their origin and tectonic significance. The Jinghong mafic–ultramafic complex was composed of peridotite, gabbro, basalt and minor plagiogranite. Whole‐rock geochemical data of the mafic rocks indicate that they have both MORB and IAB affinities and plot in the back‐arc basin basalt (BABB) field in the FeO∗/MgO vs. TiO2 diagram. Combined with their trace element characteristics, it can be concluded that the Jinghong mafic–ultramafic complex represents an ophiolite suite that was formed in a back‐arc ocean basin. Precise LA‐ICP‐MS zircon U‐Pb dating yielded weighted mean 206Pb/238U ages of 298.4 ± 1.7 Ma, 294.3 ± 1.6 Ma, and 292.8 ± 2.0 Ma for gabbroic rocks from this complex, which indicates that the Jinghong ophiolites were formed during the early Permian (298–293 Ma). We propose that during subduction of the main Paleo‐Tethys Ocean, a back‐arc ocean basin was formed at the east of the Lancangjiang tectonic belt. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Neoarchean basement rocks of the Qixingtai region in the northwest of western Shandong, eastern North China Craton are divided into western and eastern domains, separated by a ductile shear zone. The western domain is mainly composed of early Neoarchean tonalitic and supracrustal rocks, and the eastern domain is composed of late Neoarchean crustally‐derived granite with diverse early Neoarchean enclaves up to several kilometres long of supracrustal and gneissic TTG‐diorite rocks. This study reports an integrated field, whole‐rock geochemistry and zircon U–Pb‐Hf study on the granites and their enclaves in the eastern domain. The supracrustal enclaves are mainly composed of meta‐basaltic and meta‐ultramafic rocks and are the same in lithological association and formation time as the 2,750–2,700 Ma Liuhang "Formation" in the western area. The TTG‐diorite enclaves can be divided into early and late groups. Magmatic zircons from early TTG‐diorite samples have U–Pb ages of 2,731 ± 17 to 2,748 ± 13 Ma and εHf(t) values of +2.7 to +9.5, whereas trondhjemite samples of the late group have U–Pb zircon ages of 2,588 ± 18 to 2,606 ± 12 Ma and εHf(t) values of +0.6 to +6.5. The Hf isotopic signatures on magmatic zircon from the >2,700 Ma diorite‐tonalites indicate that they are predominantly juvenile crustal additions, probably with minor involvement of older crust in their genesis, as given by tDM (Hf) ages ranging back to 2.92 Ga. The eastern granites range from monzogranite to syenogranite in composition and commonly have negative Eu anomalies, indicating residual plagioclase in the source region. Magmatic zircons from two granite samples have U–Pb ages of 2,516 ± 24 and 2,527 ± 18 Ma and εHf(t) values of +1.0 to +7.0. A fine‐grained syenogranite dyke contains inherited early Neoarchean zircons with εHf(t) values of +1.6 to +7.4. The isotopic signatures of the late Neoarchean granites that dominate the eastern domain show that they were derived from partial melting recycling of older continental crust recognized in the region – early Neoarchean rocks formed as a result of juvenile crustal additions. This is a common signature for late Archean crustal evolution throughout much of the North China Craton, and is the hallmark of some other Archean terranes, such as the Dharwar Craton of south India. The geodynamic explanations for the formation globally of vast amounts of crustally‐derived late Neoarchean granite are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Eastern Shandong is one of the important early Precambrian areas in the North China Craton, where extensive 2.5, 2.7 and 2.9 Ga magmatic activities have been identified, followed by very strong late Neoarchean and Paleoproterozoic tectono-thermal events. We carried out SHRIMP zircon dating, Hf-in-zircon isotope analysis and a whole-rock geochemical study on ca. 2.9 Ga Mesoarchean magmatic rocks. These include gneissic diorite, gneissic quartz diorite, gneissic tonalite and gneissic high-Si trondhjemite and were identified in five new areas. All these rocks contain ca. 2.5 Ga metamorphic zircons. The dioritic and tonalitic rocks are enriched in large ion lithosphile (LIL) elements (K, Rb, Ba) and depleted in Nb and P with moderate to highly fractionated REE patterns, similar in chemical compositions to Archean TTG rocks worldwide. The high-Si trondhjemites are characterized by very high SiO 2 and very low FeOt + MgO. The magmatic zircon grains from all these rocks are similar in their Hf isotopic compositions and have ɛ Hf ( t ) values ranging from + 1.3 to +9.9. Combined with previous work, our main conclusions are: (1) eastern Shandong underwent a major magmatic event at ca. 2.9 Ga; (2) diorites and tonalites formed by melting of thickened lower crust or the root of an oceanic plateau, whereas the high-Si trondhjemites were derived from melting of intermediate to felsic rocks; (3) the Mesoarchean (ca. 2.9 Ga) was a major period of juvenile crustal addition from the depleted mantle, earlier than the major crustal growth period at 2.7–2.8 Ga in the North China Craton; (4) the 2.7–2.9 Ga rocks underwent strong metamorphism at ca. 2.5 Ga, probably as a result of magmatic underplating.

Mesoarchean and older potassic granites are important indicators of recycling of ancient continental crust early in Earth's history. This study of integrated whole rock and zircon geochemistry and geochronology reports the age and identification of the source materials of the > 200 km 2 Mesoarchean Tiejiashan-Gongchangling granite in the Anshan-Benxi area, North China Craton, the largest pre-Neoarchean granite domain in the craton. SHRIMP U-Pb zircon dating on 15 samples indicates the magmatic crystallization of the granites between 2.95 and 3.0 Ga and reveals a superimposed tectonothermal event at ~ 2.91 Ga. The granites are characterized by high SiO 2 and K 2 O, low CaO, FeOt, MgO and TiO 2 with peraluminuous features. They show large variations in (La/Yb) n and strong negative Eu and Ba anomalies and Nb, P and Ti depletions. Whole rock Nd and magmatic zircon Hf isotopic compositions show large variations, but with most having ε Nd (t) and ε Hf (t) values < 0, with t DM (Nd) and t DM (Hf) values varying from 3.3 to 3.9 Ga and 3.3 to 4.0 Ga, respectively. Magmatic zircons without very strong lead loss (discordance ≤ 20%) have δ 18 O values of + 3.14 to + 8.39. 3.3–3.7 Ga xenocrystic zircons occur in some samples. The granite formed as a result of recycling of Paleo- to Eoarchean continental material in an intracontinental environment, with little if any contribution from Mesoarchean mantle sources. The sources could be predominantly unaltered ancient gneisses, together with yet to be identified Paleo- to Eoarchean materials affected by early low temperature alteration (weathered rocks or clastic sediment).

[Display omitted] • A new complex, named as the Hujiamiao Complex, was discovered in the Anshan area, NCC. • Trondhjemitic rocks of different ages from 3.79 to 3.11 Ga have been identified. • It is the first time in Anshan to identify trondhjemitic rocks with relatively high (La/Yb) n ratios. • Magmatic zircons have ε Hf (t) of −12.3 to 1.6, t DM (Hf) and t CC (Hf) ages of 4.1 to 3.6 Ga and 4.3 to 3.7 Ga. • All the Anshan 3.8–3.3 Ga complexes are the relics of the same larger complex in the area. Anshan is located in the northeastern North China Craton and has a long-term geological history back to 3.8 Ga. Four complexes with ages of 3.8–3.1 Ga have been identified previously, namely the Baijiafen, Dongshan, Shengousi and Guodishan complexes. Being similar to the neighbouring Beijiafen Complex, the newly-discovered Hujiamiao Complex extends in a northwest-southeast direction and shows tectonic contacts on one side with the Chengtaigou granite and on the other with the Chengtaigou supracrustal rocks. In the Hujiamiao Complex, trondhjemitic rocks of 3789 Ma, 3786 Ma, 3698 Ma, 3617 Ma, 3566 Ma, 3504 Ma and 3106 Ma have been identified. More work is required to establish if a gabbro also has a formation age of 3.8 Ga. The trondhjemitic rocks show similar compositional features in being high in SiO 2 (72.37–76.71 %) and Na 2 O (5.00–6.47 %) and low in K 2 O (0.60–1.95 %), ∑REE contents (32.83–91.83 ppm) and (La/Yb) n ratios (11.09–48.64). They have whole-rock ε Nd (t) values of 0.35–4.43, t DM (Nd) of 3.74–3.46 Ga and t CC (Nd) ages of 3.74–3.43 Ga, and in situ magmatic zircon ε Hf (t) values of −12.3 to 1.56, t DM (Hf) ages of 4.2 to 3.5 Ga and t CC (Hf) ages of 4.6 to 3.7 Ga. Combined with previous work, it is concluded that all the Anshan area 3.8–3.3 Ga complexes are the relics of a larger complex which was once more widely distributed in the Anshan area. The trondhjemitic rather than tonalitic character of the Anshan Eoarchean rocks shows diversity in the formation and evolution of the earliest continental crust with a range of T/P for crustal anatexis.
