This study highlights the use of multi-proxy elemental and isotopic mapping of granitoids to advance our understanding of lithospheric architecture and the formation of large-scale mineral systems associated with orogenic events. Here, we combine and review regional multi-proxy element–isotope systematics and the spatial and temporal relationships between granitic magmatism and mineral deposit formation within the Qinling Orogen of Central China. The collation of these data allows the modeling of the evolution of Triassic lithospheric architecture of the orogen and its controls on metallogenesis in this region. The Qinling Orogen is divided into eastern, middle, and western segments by two north-south trending lithospheric discontinuities located at 103°E–104°E and 107°E–108°E. Spatial variations in the Nb–Ta–Zr–Hf elemental and Sr–Nd–Hf isotopic compositions of Triassic granitoids throughout this region provide insight into the heterogeneity of mantle and crust material within this region, as well as the interaction between crust and mantle derived melts within the Qinling Orogen. The orogenic Au and porphyry Cu and/or Mo mineralization within this region is also concentrated along lithospheric discontinuities. These include granitoid-hosted porphyry Cu deposits that cluster and are localized within older crustal material with the most enriched Sr–Nd–Hf isotopic compositions and low Nb/Ta ratios, suggesting the crucial role of fertile metasomatic lithospheric mantle in the formation of these porphyry Cu systems. In comparison, porphyry Mo/Mo–Cu deposits are generally located in areas with younger basement material that has been reworked multiple times, suggesting that intense crust–mantle interaction promotes the reworking of ancient crustal material, which mobilized Mo within the older crustal material to be incorporated into porphyry Mo systems. The links between tectonism, orogenic processes, and metallogeny within the Qinling Orogen outlined in this review not only provide insights for future exploration within this region but also in other orogenic systems globally, highlighting the importance of incorporating orogenic and tectonic processes in mineral systems and exploration targeting.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11483,"journal":{"name":"Earth-Science Reviews","volume":"264 ","pages":"Article 105092"},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143601415","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A review of the fossil evidence permits the recognition of new patterns of diversity for various clades during the recovery period following the end-Permian mass extinction. Unfortunately, the fossil record for tetrapods in the CEB across the Permian–Triassic boundary is virtually non-existent. The lowermost Triassic strata are almost entirely devoid of tetrapod fossils in the CEB, which is in marked contrast with coeval terrestrial deposits in higher-palaeolatitude regions such as South Africa. Temnospondyls were present in many Olenekian horizons and diversified at the beginning of the Anisian, attaining their greatest diversity in the late Ladinian, probably as a response to an increase in available freshwater environments and tolerance of fluctuating salinity in at least some forms. Among amniotes, only procolophonoids have been found in both Olenekian and Anisian strata in Germany, in each instance with two taxa, and they persisted into the late Ladinian. The ichnofaunas tell a rather different (partly complementary) story. Especially in the Olenekian, the poor body fossil record for tetrapods contrasts sharply with the abundance and high diversity of tetrapod ichnofossils, particularly those produced by archosauromorph reptiles. Large tetrapod tracks (&lt;em&gt;Protochirotherium&lt;/em&gt;) suggest that large-bodied archosauriforms were present, but no skeletal remains of such forms have been recovered from known coeval horizons in the CEB to date. Strata of the lower Anisian have recently yielded procolophonids, rhynchosaurs, tanysaurians, a eucrocopodan archosauriform, a ‘sail-backed’ poposauroid pseudosuchian, and a drepanosauromorph. For this time interval, the body fossil record (with three temnospondyl and seven amniote taxa) approaches the diversity of the rich tetrapod track record. The differences between Middle and Late Triassic faunas are not as profound as had traditionally been assumed. Whereas there was an almost complete replacement of temnospondyl taxa except for the long-ranging &lt;em&gt;Gerrothorax pulcherrimus&lt;/em&gt;, the composition of terrestrial amniote assemblages appears to have changed more gradually from the Anisian to the Norian. The Ladinian of southern Germany has yielded a wide range of taxa not otherwise represented in the CEB nor elsewhere. This includes several taxa of lepidosauromorphs including a rhynchocephalian, a colognathid, a trilophosaurid, a shell-less stem-turtle, an owenettid and a procolophonid, and four different archosauriform taxa.

The early evolution of these marine invertebrates occurred against a backdrop of environmental conditions repeatedly disrupted by crises of varying severity. To better understand the genesis of these bioevents and their potential abiotic triggers, this study analyzes the biodiversity fluctuations characterizing the initial Devonian radiation of ammonoids, based on the fossil record from Morocco. The Anti-Atlas of Morocco provides the best record of Devonian ammonoids: the succession is complete and the ammonoid assemblages are well documented in the literature. The taxonomic component of biodiversity was investigated by analyzing species richness and taxonomic changes at high temporal resolution (biozone resolution) and using various analytical methods. Species richness variations over time were computed using a traditional incidence-based binning approach (range-through diversity) and two modern occurrence-based resampling methods (corrected first-order jackknife and shareholder quorum subsampling). Taxonomic changes were examined by analyzing variations in extinction and origination rates; this taxonomic volatility was further evaluated using a poly-cohort analysis. The diversity dynamics of ammonoid species during the Devonian were also explored through network analysis to assess the possible existence of so-called “evolutionary faunas”. The results reveal a highly fluctuating species richness throughout the Devonian, with successive phases of diversification and decline. Diversity peaks are recorded in the late Emsian, early Eifelian, middle Givetian, late Givetian (Devonian maximum), late Frasnian, and late Famennian. More than 15 extinction episodes of varying intensity and duration marked the early evolution of ammonoids; some represented progressive diversity declines, while others were severe losses or involved sudden faunal replacements. Network analysis highlights the successive diversification of six ammonoid evolutionary faunas of varying longevity. The transitions between these faunas define five major turnover intervals, which match with previously documented Devonian events and crises that are considered to be strongly influenced by global environmental changes: (1) Upper Zlíchov and Daleje events (Emsian), (2) Choteč Event (Eifelian), (3) Kačák Event and Taghanic Crisis (end-Eifelian and middle Givetian, respectively), (4) Kellwasser Crisis (end-Frasnian), (5) Condroz and Enkeberg events (early/middle Famennian transition).

This study presents a challenge to the two assumptions through an integrative analysis of geological, geophysical and geochemical data, mainly focusing on the duration of &lt;em&gt;syn&lt;/em&gt;-collisional processes, the spatial range of syn-collisional effects, and the distinction in structure and composition between &lt;em&gt;syn&lt;/em&gt;-collisional and post-collisional products. It turns out that the India-Asia collisional orogeny was short-lived in the Early Cenozoic without significant underthrusting of the Indian continent beneath the Tibet hinterland, and that the plateau uplift was governed by post-collisional mantle dynamics in the Late Cenozoic rather than the ongoing collision/subduction during the whole Cenozoic. The geological architecture of the Tibetan Plateau is highlighted as a mosaic of terranes that were accreted northwards from the Early Paleozoic through the Late Paleozoic to the Mesozoic. These terranes and their sutures were variably reactivated during the short-lived collision in the Early Cenozoic rather than forming as a singular collisional entity throughout the entire Cenozoic. The India-Asia collisional effects are the most prominent in the Himalayan and Gangdese orogens.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Inspection of key findings in the literature dismantles the traditional paradigms based on the two generic assumptions. Seismic tomography and helium isotope data constrain subduction of the Indian continent to depths of 200–300 km mainly beneath the Yarlung-Zangpo Suture that marks the southernmost margin of the Tibetan Plateau. Paleomagnetic discrepancies regarding the width of Greater India are resolved by emphasizing the cover-basement decoupling during soft collision and shallow subduction, limiting its underthrusting to short distances of ≤300 km. This reconciles geological shortening estimates with exaggerated paleomagnetic-derived convergence distances. A critical examination of petrological, structural and geochronological data partitions the formation of the Himalayan orogen into two stages. The first is the continental suturing from soft collision through hard collision to deep subduction, leading to crustal shortening through slice thrusting mainly at 55–45 Ma in the Early Cenozoic. The second is the post-collisional reworking due to upwelling of the asthenospheric mantle induced by foundering of the lithospheric mantle, resulting in crustal anatexis, emplacement of leucogranites and metamorphic core complexes, and domical uplift mainly at 30–10 Ma in the Late Cenozoic.

The widespread glacial landforms in HMA suggest that these glaciers have experienced significant changes in extent over time. The climate of northern HMA is influenced mainly by the Asian monsoons and the mid-latitude westerlies. Changes in the climate system during glacial-interglacial cycles potentially resulted in a unique pattern of glacial evolution in northern HMA; however, elucidating this pattern requires a comprehensive understanding of the spatiotemporal evolution of the glaciers in this region. To achieve this, we compiled 450 ¹⁰Be exposure ages from northern HMA, including 84 new and 366 previously reported ages, and we also conducted high-resolution simulations of paleoglacier extent that correspond with glacial geological records. Our findings emphasize the complexity of past glacier evolution throughout HMA. The two climatic domains share similarities in glacial sequences, climatic mechanisms, glacial style, and depression of the equilibrium line altitude (ELA). Landforms created by glacier advances corresponding to Marine Isotope Stages (MIS) 6, 3, and 2 have been identified in both domains, indicating a strong relationship between these advances and cooler climatic conditions. Since the penultimate glaciation, glaciers in northern HMA have gradually evolved from extensive ice fields to piedmont glaciers, to valley glaciers, and then to cirque glaciers. This transformation is reflected in the progressive ascent of the ELA. A key difference in glacial evolution between these two climatic regions is that the timing of the local last glacial maximum (lLGM) was asynchronous compared to the global last glacial maximum (gLGM). The timing of the lLGM varied between the monsoons-westerlies transitional domain and the westerlies domain, occurring during MIS 3 and MIS 4, respectively. This difference was caused by variations in the relative strength of atmospheric circulation systems and changes in moisture supply. In a similarly cool climate, variations in precipitation distribution explain the differing patterns of ELA change observed in these two climate domains during past glacial cycles.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11483,"journal":{"name":"Earth-Science Reviews","volume":"264 ","pages":"Article 105089"},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143643940","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The natural provision of services is existential for humanity, but has long been taken for granted, and not economically valued.

Nevertheless, an extensive coat coverage does not necessarily lead to a significant decrease in the accessible surface area of detrital grains. Secondly, clay coats can retard the diffusion of ions and molecules passing through the coating layer, which is jointly controlled by the microporosity, tortuosity, and thickness of the coating layer. These two effects may significantly decelerate the dissolution rate of detrital reactive grains being coated (e.g., feldspars) and inhibit the precipitation of secondary quartz. Furthermore, the inhibition of secondary quartz by clay coats is also significantly controlled by the width of gap between neighbouring clay platelets and the solid barrier created by clay platelets themselves. Moreover, although the identification and quantification remain challenging, clay coats may undergo a significant dissolution. As a result, the reactivity and compositions of clay coats may significantly impact mineral dissolution and precipitation and sandstone porosity.

This review examines the impacts of the Tarim Large Igneous Province (TLIP) and Emeishan Large Igneous Province (ELIP) on the petroleum systems and climate outcomes in the Tarim and Sichuan basins. In the Tarim Basin, the TLIP did not coincide with source rock development, whereas the ELIP in the Sichuan Basin coincided with the formation of organic-rich shales and coals. Thermal effects from igneous intrusions played a critical role in the maturation of source rocks, inducing hydrocarbon generation through the thermal transformation of organic matter. Hydrogen produced from magma or interactions between ultramafic rock and water may play a significant role in hydrocarbon generation within petroliferous basins. Hydrothermal fluids potentially altered mature source rocks in both basins, though the extent remains uncertain. Fractures generated by igneous intrusions not only serve as reservoirs and migration pathways for hydrocarbons, but also enhance reservoir quality through hydrothermal fluid-induced dolomitization in carbonates. Intrusions can also act as barriers, impeding petroleum migration. Trapping mechanisms vary between basins: in the Tarim Basin, folds and faults resulting from intrusion-related deformation are common, while the ELIP's impact on hydrocarbon accumulation in the Sichuan Basin remains less defined. Both TLIP and ELIP released substantial greenhouse gases, yet their climate impacts differ. The ELIP is strongly associated with mass extinctions, whereas the TLIP's environmental consequences were less severe. These differences underscore the need for further research to clarify the influence of igneous intrusions on petroleum systems, source rock maturation, and climate dynamics.
