Abstract
null null Voluminous Neoproterozoic gabbros, gabbro-diorites, and granites are exposed in the Baoxing area along the western margin of the Yangtze Block. We present here zircon U–Pb and Lu–Hf isotope data, as well as whole-rock geochemical data for these rocks, which help constrain the tectonic characteristics and evolution of the western margin of the Yangtze Block. Zircons from these rocks have high Th and U contents and Th/U ratios (> 0.2),...
