摘 要:The North China Craton(NCC) is the typical example of destruction of an ancient ***,the destruction mechanism and geodynamic controlling factors still remain enigmatic due to controversy on the timing of destruction,which is the key to understanding the destruction *** on temporal and spatial distributions of the igneous rocks,and their sources and tectonic settings,it is recognized that six stages of tectono-magmatism occurred in the NCC during the Phanerozoic,i.e.,Carboniferous to Early Permian, Late Permian to Middle Triassic,Late Triassic,Jurassic,Early Cretaceous and *** them,Cenozoic magmatism mainly consists of alkali basalts and is found only occasionally in the eastern *** first four stages of magmatism and tectonism,related to the southward subduction of the Paleo-Asian plate and the assembly of Sino-Korean and Yangtze cratons,are locally distributed in limited parts of the NCC, reflecting a multiple stage modification of the NCC from the Late Carboniferous to ***,the intensive development of Early Cretaceous magmatism,extensional deformation and associated gold mineralization, with significant continental crustal growth,indicate that the eastern NCC was destroyed during this time *** destruction was the result of Paleo-Pacific subduction beneath the eastern Asian continent, with lithospheric removal and/or replacement of an ancient cratonic lithosphere by a juvenile oceanic lithosphere.
