Convergent processes in the evolution of the early Caledonian Bayan-Khongor zone of Central Asia: Evidence from geological and geochronological investigations of the Khan-Ula gabbroid pluton

Convergent processes in the evolution of the early Caledonian Bayan-Khongor zone of Central Asia: Evidence from geological and geochronological investigations of the Khan-Ula gabbroid pluton

The formation of the Caledonian accretional-collisional area of the Central Asian Fold Belt (CAFB) is controlled by the processes of Early Caledonian tectonogenesis. In the range of 570-490 Ma, these processes resulted in the formation of the Caledonian superterrain comprising the fragments of conti...

Zusammenfassung:The formation of the Caledonian accretional-collisional area of the Central Asian Fold Belt (CAFB) is controlled by the processes of Early Caledonian tectonogenesis. In the range of 570-490 Ma, these processes resulted in the formation of the Caledonian superterrain comprising the fragments of continental massifs located within the Paleoasian Ocean, as well as Late Riphean and Vendian-Early Paleozoic oceanic and island arc structures.
