840–820 Ma Dahongshan bimodal volcanic rocks: new constraints on the Neoproterozoic arc–back-arc basin system along the northern margin of the Yangtze Block
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The newly identified earliest part of the Sanligang bimodal volcanic succession in the Dahongshan area of the northern Yangtze Block provides insight into the role of this block in the evolution of the Rodinia supercontinent. Field contact relationships and dating indicate that these rocks are contemporaneous and formed at 840–820 Ma. The Sanligang mafic rocks have low SiO2 (40.33–48.17 wt.%) and K2O (0.07–1.65 wt.%), high TiO2 (2.64–3.52 wt.%) contents, and low U/Th (0.33–0.38), Th/Zr (0.001–0.002), and Nb/Y (0.059–0.064) ratios with positive εNd(t) (+5.08 to +7.59). This suggests that they are formed from magmas derived from an asthenospheric mantle source that had not been modified by slab-derived materials, with a low degree of crustal contamination during their eruption. Contemporaneous felsic rocks in the study area have high SiO2 (73.1–80.0 wt.%), variable K2O (0.63–4.39 wt.%) and Na2O (1.73–6.54 wt.%), and low MgO (0.1–0.58 wt.%) contents and are light rare earth element enriched, with (La/Yb)N values of 1.37–2.65 and significantly negative Eu anomalies. They have A2-type granite affinities, as evidenced by their high 10,000 Ga/Al values (3.51–4.55) and Zr contents (285–620 ppm), and positive whole-rock εNd(t) (+6.16–+6.52), zircon εHf(t) (+9.69–+12.29) and δ18O (+4.82–+6.11) values, suggesting they formed by partial melting of juvenile crustal material caused by heating associated with contemporaneous mantle-derived mafic magmatism. Combining the data for these bimodal volcanic successions with other rock assemblages in the Dahongshan area indicates that this magmatism occurred in a back-arc extensional setting. This magmatism was caused by slab detachment and separation along a vertical tear during the Neoproterozoic evolution of the arc to arc–back-arc system of the northern margin of the Yangtze Block.

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.
