Abstract
The Altun orogenic belt, located on the northern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, records the assembly and breakup of the Rodinia supercontinent. In this paper, we report the petrography, zircon U–Pb ages and Hf isotope data, and bulk geochemistry of the Hongliugou alkali feldspar granites from the Altun orogenic belt to constrain their petrogenesis and tectonic implication. Zircon U–Pb dating yielded ages of 857–851 Ma, interpreted as the...
