Abstract
Dec. 2000 Abstracts of Acta Geologica Sinicu (Chinese Edition) Vol. 74, No. 4,2000 M j r Meoozoic Tectonic Events in the Yanshan Belt and ao the Plate Tectonic Setting ZHENG Yadong (Dept. of Geology, Peking University, Beijing 100871, China) G.A. DAVIS, WANG Cong, B.J. DARBY (Dept. of Earth Sciences, University of Southern California, Los Angeles AC 90089, USA) ZHANG Changhou (China University of Geosciences, Beijing 100083, China) Our field work and geochronologic studies in northern Hebei and western Liaoning areas indicate that the major Mesozoic contractional events in the Yanshan belt are of ( I ) pre-Middle Jurassic (Indosinian?), (2) Late Jurassic and (3) Early Cretaceous age. The first N-S shortening could be a consequence of the collision of the Mongolian arcs along the Solon suture against the North China plate. Siberian-North China plate collision across the Jura-Cretaceous Mongolo-Okhotsk Sea more than 800-1000 km to the north could be responsible for the regional N-S intraplate contractional deformation in the Yanshan belt during Late Jurassic and Early Cretaceous time. The NNE-structural trends, the regional patterns of Mesozoic magmatism in eastern China and the close spatial and temporal ties existing in the middle crust between the S-directed Early Cretaceous basement
