The Donchai Group represents the oldest sedimentary sequence of the Sukhothai Terrane and consists mainly of meta-sandstone, quartzo-feldspathic schist, phyllite and silty slate. This paper presents new detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology and Lu–Hf isotope data, and geochemical results for the sedimentary rocks of the Donchai Group to elucidate the depositional age, provenance and nature of the group. The youngest detrital zircon ages (433–403 Ma) suggest that the Donchai Group was accumulated between 433 Ma and 368 Ma, revealing Silurian–Devonian arc magmatic rocks on the western margin of the Sukhothai Terrane. Sediments of the Donchai Group were sourced from both the continental basement and a Silurian–Early Devonian magmatic arc, suggesting a depositional setting on the continental slope of a back-arc basin along the western flank of the Sukhothai Terrane. The Silurian–Devonian arc belt in SW China likely extend to the Chiang Rai region, to the west of the Sukhothai Terrane, northern Thailand, revealing the northward subduction of the Proto-Tethys Ocean along the western Simao and Sukhothai margin during the middle Paleozoic. The inferred arc and back-arc configuration of the Proto-Tethys in northern Thailand is comparable with that recently established in Yunnan, SW China.

Previous studies conducted the existence of transcontinental river systems in the East Asia mainland during the Cretaceous to early Cenozoic with few studies on pre-Cretaceous drainage systems. To determine the impact on the evolution of paleo-drainage systems triggered by tectonic movement of the Indochina Block, we performed paleomagnetic and U-Pb geochronologic analyses on the Late Triassic to Early Cretaceous sedimentary rocks in the Simao Basin. Paleomagnetic data indicate stable Jurassic tectonic environments between the Indochina and Songpan Ganzi-South China blocks, following their Late Triassic collision. Based on detrital zircon U-Pb dating, the Late Triassic age spectra consist of mainly Phanerozoic components, while the Jurassic to Cretaceous age spectra displayed more Precambrian age peaks. The contribution of potential provenance to the Simao Basin changed during the Early Cretaceous, suggesting several sedimentary provenance transitions. Also, we believe that large continental-scale drainage systems sourced from the Songpan-Ganzi Block flowing through North Qiangtang, Sichuan, Simao, and Khorat basins since after the Late Jurassic.

However, this challenge remains controversial due to the lack of in-situ mineralogical evidence. Here, we report new data and observations from the Skenderbeu massif in Mirdita ophiolite, Albania. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis reveal for the first time that these chromitites (Cr#= 41.8-43.2) have numerous exsolution lamellae of diopsidic clinopyroxene and orthoenstatite. TEM analysis also show that these lamellae have a crystallographic topotaxy relationship with the host chromite, i.e., (020) Cpx ∥︀ (22(—)0) Chr , (2(—)00) Cpx ∥︀ (111) Chr , and (010) Opx ∥︀ (22(—)0) Chr , (200) Opx ∥︀ (22(—)0) Chr , indicating an exsolution origin. The abundant presence of pyroxene exsolution lamellae in center of the host chromites implies the incorporation of Si 4+ and Ca 2+ cations in the precursor chromite, a CaFe 2 O 4 -structured high-pressure polymorph, which was stable >12.5 GPa (i.e., 380 km deep). These in-situ, nano-scale observations, and geological occurrence, together with previously discovered ophiolitic diamonds in the Mirdita ophiolite, suggest a much deeper origin for ophiolitic chromitites than conventional interpretations, and provide a valuable opportunity to understand the composition of the deep mantle.

Despite its significance, the timing and driving mechanism of the Cenozoic mountain building of the Tian Shan in the context of the India-Eurasia collision remain controversial. In this study, Cenozoic stratigraphy of the Tiereke section along the western Kuqa Depression of the northern Tarim Basin on the south foreland of Eastern Tian Shan (east of 80°E) has been investigated. The results indicated that the Cenozoic deposition of the Tiereke region sequentially experienced a transgression from the Kumugeliemu Group to the Suweiyi Formation and a regression from the Suweiyi to the Kuqa Formations. Based on the contact relationships and conglomerate textures, three stages of high-energy alluvial deposition have been identified in the lower Kumugeliemu Group, upper Jidike, and Kangcun-Kuqa Formations, respectively. These sedimentary events were interpreted to represent phases of Eastern Tian Shan mountain building at ca. 54 Ma, ca. 27 Ma and since ca. 9.7 Ma according to previous magnetostratigraphic results, which were possibly related to the initial India-Eurasia collision, the collision between the India and Tarim lithospheric mantles, and the basinward propagation of deformation, respectively.

Matebian Range, one of its largest mountains, was previously mapped as Lower Miocene neritic Cablac Limestone and regarded as allochthonous (viz. Banda Terrane). New analyses have demonstrated a disjunct stratigraphy, extending from the Lower Jurassic to lowest Miocene and encompassing neritic to abyssal strata. Positioning each stratigraphic unit (six new) on a time vs. bathymetry plot and identifying clast types in conglomerates and turbidites allows reconstruction of changes in provenance to depo-centres through time. Terrane progression from the northern margin of Gondwana to the southern Sundaland margin (Asia) and then back to the northwest margin of the Australian continent is indicated involving progressive amalgamation and rifting and substantial episodes of uplift, particularly during the Middle Eocene and the Late Oligocene. The youngest unit (Late Oligocene–earliest Miocene) was deposited adjacent a rapidly rising hinterland (southern Sundaland) very different from that on the coeval Australian margin. The study provides a model for the tectonostratigraphic reconstruction of limestone-dominated mountains in young orogenic belts and demonstrates the importance of using sedimentary clasts in mass-flow deposits to interpret ages and depositional environments of reworked material and to stitch together tectonostratigraphic pathways through time.

Northeastern Tibet has been suggested as one of the youngest deforming and uplifting margins surrounding the plateau. The existence of fluvial knickpoints and low-relief topographic surfaces along the Yellow River and its tributaries indicate the transience of the landscape in response to active tectonic uplift. Therefore, the uplift history of the North Eastern Tibetan Plateau (NETP) can be potentially inverted from the disequilibrium channel profiles of the Yellow River and its tributaries. The West Qinling Fault (WQF) is part of the geomorphological and topographic boundaries of the NETP. Its uplift history helps explore the deformation history of the Tibetan Plateau. In this study, the focus was on the Daxia River (one of the Yellow River tributary) in order to identify the distribution of peneplain surfaces and knickpoints, and present a linear inversion on the fluvial longitudinal profiles for the relative uplift history of the West Qinling. We obtained a relative uplift history with two pulses of change in the uplift rates at ∼5 Ma and ∼2 Ma. Rates of relative uplift maintained low values during the Late Miocene, then slowly increased from 0.1 mm/a to 0.2 mm/a since ∼5 Ma and suddenly jumped to 0.3 mm/a at ∼2 Ma, consistent with recent findings on the deformation records in the NE Tibetan Plateau. We suggest that 1) the Late Miocene-Pliocene landscape evolution was driven by both tectonics and climate change and 2) inversion of the transient longitudinal channel profiles, if applied, may provide broader insights into the upward and outwards growth patterns of the NE Tibetan Plateau.

Results from recent studies indicate the Asian monsoon reached the subtropical zone at least ∼ 41 Ma and expanded to the central Tibetan Plateau during the Late Oligocene, but more geological evidence is still required to confirm its spatial and temporal evolution. The well-developed Late Oligocene paleosol in the Lunpola Basin, central TP, is ideal material for addressing the issue. In this paper, observations of various climatic indicators suggest these paleosols were forest cinnamon soils, shown by the compound Bt and Bk horizons, abundant clay coating and carbonate nodules, and diagnostic clay chemical composition in Bt horizons. High CIA values, Rb/Sr ratios, and high contents of illite/smectite mixed layer minerals show paleosols experienced intense weathering and leaching pedogenesis. Furthermore, the mean annual temperature and mean annual precipitation during the paleosol developmental period were 10.4∼14.8 ℃ and 615∼1128 mm, respectively, as estimated by the empirical formulas, which are comparable to the parameters of cinnamon soils in monsoon climate. This study provides important independent evidence of paleosol for the study of the evolution of the Asian monsoon.

Stratigraphic and biostratigraphic data indicate the occurrence of a Valanginian transition zone sequence separating the volcanic sequence and pelagic sedimentary cover. The latter consists of lower Hauterivian cherty limestone passing upwards to upper Hauterivian – Barremian marl and limestone. The pelagic sedimentary cover continues with post-Barremian – Cenomanian (?) marls. Arenites are interlayered in the sedimentary cover; they are composed of rock fragments derived from volcanic arc and continental margin settings. The BEZO sedimentary cover is intruded by dykes and sills showing enriched mid-ocean ridge (MOR) basalt chemical affinity. Structural analysis indicates a polyphase deformation history that involved faulting and folding. Our multidisciplinary results indicate that the BEZO formed in a MOR setting and that it was subsequently overprinted by off-axis and within-plate magmatism as it spread away from this MOR. The Band-e-Zeyarat oceanic crust was incorporated into the Makran prism in the latest Late Cretaceous – Paleocene, and was further deformed via strike-slip faulting along the dextral Minab-Sabzevaran fault during the Miocene - Pliocene.
