Abstract
null null The Xiaodingxi and Manghuihe volcanic sequences represent key components of the Lancangjiang igneous zone in southwest China. Their petrogenesis provides important constraints on the tectonic evolution of the eastern Paleotethys ocean. The basaltic rocks from the Xiaodingxi and Manghuihe sequences yield SHRIMP zircon U–Pb weighted mean ages of 214 ± 7 Ma and 210 ± 22 Ma, respectively, which is 15–20 Ma younger than the ages of the...
