A possible northward subduction in the southwestern Yangtze block during the Rodinia assembly: New constraints from three-dimensional magnetotelluric imaging
The Yangtze block is a crucial component of the Rodinia and Columbia supercontinents, providing insights into their evolutionary history. The newly identified Caiziyuan-Tongan accretionary complex (CAC), situated on the southwestern margin of the Yangtze block, serves as an ideal window for understanding its Precambrian evolution. The exposure of the CAC suggests the presence of an ancient ocean basin that divides the Yangtze block into northern and southern micro-blocks. During the convergence of the Rodinia supercontinent, this ocean basin underwent subduction and eventual closure; however, its associated subduction polarity remains ambiguous. To address this issue, this study employed magnetotelluric in the Caiziyuan-Tongan area. Through three-dimensional inversion, three distinct features were delineated: an upper crustal conductor in the southern CAC, a middle-upper crustal resistor trending stepwise north in the northern CAC, and a middle-lower crustal conductor encompassing the entire area. In conjunction with previously published geological and seismological observations, it is proposed that the first two features may be remnants associated with the northward subduction of the south Yangtze micro-block, while the third feature may indicate the existence of crustal flow related to the collision of the Indo-Asian plate. This finding enhances our understanding of the Precambrian evolution within the Yangtze block and contributes to the reconstruction of paleogeographic frameworks associated with the Rodinia supercontinent.
期刊介绍:
Precambrian Research publishes studies on all aspects of the early stages of the composition, structure and evolution of the Earth and its planetary neighbours. With a focus on process-oriented and comparative studies, it covers, but is not restricted to, subjects such as:
(1) Chemical, biological, biochemical and cosmochemical evolution; the origin of life; the evolution of the oceans and atmosphere; the early fossil record; palaeobiology;
(2) Geochronology and isotope and elemental geochemistry;
(3) Precambrian mineral deposits;
(4) Geophysical aspects of the early Earth and Precambrian terrains;
(5) Nature, formation and evolution of the Precambrian lithosphere and mantle including magmatic, depositional, metamorphic and tectonic processes.
In addition, the editors particularly welcome integrated process-oriented studies that involve a combination of the above fields and comparative studies that demonstrate the effect of Precambrian evolution on Phanerozoic earth system processes.
Regional and localised studies of Precambrian phenomena are considered appropriate only when the detail and quality allow illustration of a wider process, or when significant gaps in basic knowledge of a particular area can be filled.
