Permian progressive accretion or continental rift is a long‐term debate topic in the final evolution of the Altaïds or the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB). The Beishan orogenic collage in the southernmost part of the CAOB recorded the ultimate closure of the Palaeo‐Asian Ocean. In this paper, we present (a) field structural measurements/data or observations and fold geological maps in the Liuyuan Basin, (b) geochronological results to rocks...
