Felsic Magmatic Evolution and the Role of Post-Collisional Process in Continental Crustal Growth at Convergent Margins: Insights from the Western Part of the Central Qilian Belt, Northwestern China.

The article presents a study which examined the felsic magmatic evolution and the role of the post-collisional process in continental crustal growth at convergent margins in the Central Qilian Belt (CQB) in northwestern China as of December 2015. It focuses on the new geochemical and zircon uranium-lead (U-Pb) and hafnium (Hf) isotope data for representative granitoids (sensu lato) of the CQB. Also cited is the Paleaozoic evolution of the Qilian orogen.
