The Late Cretaceous I- and A-type granite association of southeast China: Implications for the origin and evolution of post-collisional extensional magmatism

We present new geochronological, mineralogical, and geochemical data for granitic plutons that crop out within the Zhoushan archipelago, northeastern coastal Zhejiang Province, in order to constrain their origin, and the genetic relationship between the I- and A-type granites. These granites can be divided into two groups: (1) the northern I-type Putuoshan (PTS) and Dadong'ao (DDA) plutons; and (2) the southern A-type Daqingshan (DQS), Taohuadao...
