Abstract
Abstract Proterozoic rocks in the northeastern Jiangxi‐southern Anhui may fall into three rock associations which belong to different but interrelated tectono‐palaeogeographic units. The field geological and petrochemical characteristics of the northeastern Jiangxi‐western Zhejiang volcanic zone indicate that it was once an island arc zone. An analysis of the sedimentary characteristics of Proterozoic turbidites lying north of the zone has revealed the history of development of a back‐arc basin. According to the type of the Proterozoic rock formation south of the zone, it may be deduced that the formation might represent the fore‐ arc and French areas. By means of various tectono‐palaeogeographic analyses, the relation between the island arc zone and the back‐arc basin is inferred and the Late Proterozoic tectono‐ palaeogeographic development is discussed by using the model of the trench‐arc‐basin system.
