“…Cenozoic continental lithospheric extension of Taiwan and the Cathaysia foldbelts has resulted in the Neogene intraplate basaltic volcanism associated with the pull-apart basins in Taiwan, the Taiwan Strait, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, and the Leiqiong region (Peng et al 1986;Zhou et al 1988;Chung et al 1994;Lan et al 1994;Ho 1998;Ho et al 2000Ho et al , 2003Zhu et al 2004). According to the timing of the cessation of the South China Sea floor spreading (~16 Ma, Chung et al 1997), the Neogene volcanic activity in the Cathaysia foldbelts can be divided into two periods: the first period (> 16 Ma, i.e., 34.3 -16.3 Ma) being of sparse volcanic activity with small amounts of lava and pyroclastics, and the second period (< 16 Ma) being of active eruption with large amounts of lava and minor pyroclastics.…”

We present a new synthesis of the tectono-thermal events of Taiwan, excluding the Coastal Range, based on existing isotopic, geochemical and geochronological data for granitic, metamorphic, volcanic and sedimentary rocks. Nd model ages (T DM ) and the inherited zircon ages consistently yielded Proterozoic ages, suggesting that the source rocks from the exposed rocks in Taiwan were formed in the Proterozoic, starting from about 2 Ga ago. The crustal evolution of Taiwan In comparison with the Cathysia foldbelts, Taiwan demonstrates similar Paleoproterozoic crustal residence ages, coeval Jurassic magmatism (Early Yanshanian) and Late Cretaceous (Late Yanshanian) orogeny. However, subduction-related magmatism was prevalent in Taiwan in comparison with both extension-and subduction-related magmatism in Cathaysia foldbelts during the Yanshanian orogeny. Rifting-related magmatism has continued in the Cathaysia foldbelts ever since Jurassic. Since Late Cretaceous, rifting-related magmatism migrated from the interior toward the coastal region in the Cathaysia foldbelts but it did not reach Taiwan until Paleogene. Since 5 Ma, subduction-related activity started in northern Taiwan. The volcanism in northern Taiwan was attributed to the Late Pliocene extensional collapse of the northern Taiwan mountain belt in response to the oblique collision of the northern Luzon arc with the Asian continent, but not directly related to the magmatism of the Ryukyu subduction zone. However, volcanism resulting from the spreading of the Okinawa trough manifests in the offshore region of northeastern Taiwan.

“…On the other hand, basalts and andesites in the Sanshui and Lianping basins of the Lithos 127 (2011) 323-335 In the Leiqiong area, Cenozoic basalts crop out over an area of 7000 km 2 with the thickness up to 224 m (GBGMR, 1988). The early volcanism (5.6-0.8 Ma) produced predominantly tholeiitic basalts, followed by a later phase (b0.8 Ma) composed of alkali and tholeiitic basalts (Ho et al, 2000;Zhou et al, 1988). All types are porphyritic, containing phenocrysts of plagioclase and clinopyroxene ± olivine.…”

It is revealed that highMg lavas (MgO=11.0-15.8 wt. %) are spatially controlled by linear zones extending for more than 90 km and demonstrate chemically distinct differences from moderatelyMg compositions (MgO=3.0-11.0 wt. %), which occupy the isometric area of the Dariganga volcanic field. From the major and traceelement data on the rocks in the field under study, we have justified a petrogenetic mode of the uniform onelevel mantle magmatism. Our model differs from the contrasting magmatism model of the processes that developed at two levels beneath the Hannuoba volcanic field. Based on tomography images showing the East Mongolian local lowvelocity anomaly in the upper mantle, we suggest that magma tism of Type 1 occurred in the mantle sources at the asthenosphere-lithosphere boundary and the underlying asthenosphere as a reflection of a relatively weak mantle flow that may have ascended from a depth of ~250 km. Magmatism of Type 2 occurred in the isolated sources of the sublithospheric mantle and the asthenosphere-lithosphere boundary as an evidence on the initially strong mantle flow that may have ascended from a depth of ~410 km. Аннотация: Установлен пространственный контроль высокомагнезиальных вулканических пород (MgO=11.0-15.8 мас. %) линейными зонами протяженностью более 90 км и резкие отличия их химического состава от умеренно магнезиальных (MgO=3.0-11.0 мас. %) пород, занимающих всю изометричную территорию вулканического поля Дариганга. При сравнительном анализе петрогенных и малых элементов пород этого поля обоснована петрогенети ческая модель мантийного магматизма одного глубинного уровня, в отличие от модели контрастных магматических процессов, проявленных на двух глубинных уровнях под вулканическим полем Ханнуоба.
