Zircon geochronology and Hf isotopes of Mesozoic intrusive rocks from the Yidun terrane, Eastern Tibetan Plateau: Petrogenesis and their bearings with Cu mineralization

Zircon U–Pb ages and Hf isotopic composition of Mesozoic intrusive rocks from the Yidun terrane were systematically investigated in order to decipher the geodynamic setting of magmatism and their relationship with Cu-polymetallic mineralization in the Eastern Tibetan Plateau. Zircon U–Pb dating results on seven granitoid rocks and four diorite samples indicate that the Mesozoic plutons from the Yidun terrane were emplaced in the period of...
