Pressure-temperature-time evolution of the Milin pelitic schists: Implications for the tectonic evolution of the eastern Indus-Yarlung suture zone, eastern Himalaya
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract We report an integrated comprehensive dataset composed of petrography, pressure-temperature (P-T) calculations, monazite U-Th-Pb ages, and trace-element data from pelitic schists in the eastern Indus-Yarlung suture zone in the Milin area of the eastern Himalaya. These rocks represent the exposure of subduction-related rocks within the eastern Indus-Yarlung suture zone accretionary complex. The dominant mineral assemblages of the pelitic schists are garnet + kyanite + staurolite + biotite + quartz and garnet + kyanite + staurolite + biotite + paragonite + sillimanite with quartz, plagioclase, and ilmenite assemblages. Phase equilibrium modeling of sillimanite-bearing pelitic schists yielded peak P-T conditions of ~670–680 °C at ~8.6 kbar, similar to that of kyanite-bearing schists (~670 °C, ~8.8 kbar). Monazite grains with complex internal structures retained variable ages ranging from 28 Ma to 15 Ma, which correlate systematically with changes in the concentrations of Y, Th, U, and heavy rare earth elements and ratios of Th/U. Combined with petrologic analysis, we conclude that the pelitic schists experienced a long-lived prograde metamorphism from ca. 28 Ma to ca. 22 Ma. Peak metamorphism occurred in the period 22–21 Ma, followed by quasi-isothermal decompression until 15 Ma. The discrepancies among metamorphic P-T-t paths in the eastern Indus-Yarlung suture zone indicate the presence of not only collision-related regional metamorphism at medium P-T conditions, but also subduction-related high-pressure–low-temperature terranes in the Milin region. These two domains experienced different P-T evolution and tectonic histories and were juxtaposed in the early Neogene during the India-Asia continental collision.

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.
