Mesozoic High- and Low-SiO2 Adakites and A-Type Granites in the Lower Yangtze River Belt, Eastern China: Implications for Petrogenesis and Metallogeny

The Lower Yangtze River Belt (LYRB) is one of the important magmatic and metallogenic belts in China and hosts abundant Mesozoic calc-alkaline magmatic rocks and economic mineral deposits. Anqing orefield in the southwestern of the LYRB received less attention during the last two decades. Here, we present an integrated study of whole-rock major and trace elements, zircon U-Pb dating and Lu-Hf isotopes on late Mesozoic adakites and A-type...
