Neoproterozoic IAT intrusion into Mesoproterozoic MOR Miaowan Ophiolite, Yangtze Craton: Evidence for evolving tectonic settings

The Miaowan Complex in the Northern Yangtze Craton consists mainly of layered fine-grained metabasites, pillow lavas, sheeted dikes, gabbros, sepentinized harzburgite, and sepentinized dunite, with rare metasedimentary rocks in the metabasite section, and was initially regarded as an ophiolite complex. In this study, we divide the Miaowan Complex into two suites including the Miaowan Ophiolite Suite and a Late Magmatic Suite, based on...
