Generation and evolution of subduction-related batholiths from the central Urals: constraints on the P-T history of the Uralian orogen

Batholiths from the accreted terranes in the Urals were generated by repeated episodes of melting and intrusion. Verkhisetsk, the largest and one of the most complex subduction-related batholiths from the Urals, comprises an outer envelope of older tonalites, trondhjemites and granodiorites dated at 315–320 Ma and equilibrated at 6 kbar, intruded by an inner core of younger granodiorites, adamellites and granites dated at 275–290 Ma and...
