Petrogenesis and tectonic implications of Late Jurassic – Early Cretaceous granitic magmatism in the Xing’an Block, Northeast China: geochronological, geochemical, and Hf isotopic evidence
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study presents new geochronological, whole-rock geochemical, and zircon Hf isotopic evidence for the age, petrogenesis, and source of Mesozoic granitic rocks of the Xing’an Block, Northeast China. This evidence reveals the Late Mesozoic tectonic evolution of the eastern section of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt. Laser-ablation inductively coupled plasma – mass spectrometryzircon U–Pb age data indicate that the syenogranite, monzogranite, and alkali feldspar granite units, as well as their associated diorite microgranular enclaves, were emplaced between 150–142 Ma, providing evidence of Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous magmatic events within the Xing’an Block. The granites contain high concentrations of SiO2 (65.24%–75.73 wt.%) and K2O (3.94%–5.30 wt.%), low concentrations of MgO (0.10%–1.30 wt.%), and A/CNK values of 0.92–1.06. In addition, Hf isotopic analysis of zircons from the 150–142 Ma granites yields εHf(t) values of +4.54 to +12.16 and two-stage Hf model aged from 906 to 423 Ma, indicating that they formed from magmas generated by partial melting of a juvenile Neoproterozoic–Phanerozoic accreted crustal source. The basic magma source for the diorite microgranular enclaves most likely formed from partial melting of a depleted mantle that had been metasomatized by subduction-related fluids. Combining these new geochemical data with the geology of this region, Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous magmatism in the Xing’an Block most likely occurred in an extensional environment associated with closure of the Mongol–Okhotsk Ocean.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
