Abstract: Highlights: [•] The protoliths of the Basongco metamorphic rocks consist mainly of early Paleozoic sedimentary rocks. [•] These rocks experienced the early Mesozoic metamorphism, and associated with the coeval magmatism. [•] The metamorphic conditions are T =640–705°C and P =6.0–8.0kbar. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
