Elemental and Sr-Nd isotopic compositions of Cenozoic sedimentary rocks from the Dongying Sag of Jiyang depression, North China: Implications for provenance evolution

Siliciclastic input into upper Cenomanian synorogenic sediments of the High-Tatric Unit, Central Western Carpathians (Tatra Mountains); petrography, geochemistry and provenance

“…The ra tios be tween rel a tively im mo bile trace el e ments, includ ing La/Sc, Th/Sc, Th/Co and Th/Cr, are also con sid ered suitable in di ca tors of par ent rock prov e nance (e.g., Wron kiewicz and Condie, 1990;Cox et al, 1995;Cullers, 1995;Cai et al, 2011;Ali et al, 2014). This is sup ported by the fact that La, Th and Hf are en riched in fel sic rocks, whereas Co, Cr, and Sc are more concen trated in mafic rocks.…”

“…Whole-rock Sr-Nd-Hf isotopic diagrams of the Jinan gabbros. Data sources: the Sulu mafic rocks (Guo et al, 2004); the carbonatites (Ying et al, 2004 and our unpublished data); the Mesozoic Taihangshan mafic rocks Wang et al, 2006); the Jinan gabbros (Guo et al, 2001;Huang et al, 2012;Yang et al, 2012a); NCB LCC (Huang et al, 2004;Liu et al, 2004;Zhou et al, 2002); NCB UCC (Cai et al, 2011); Perovskite in Mengyin kimberlites (Yang et al, 2009); Fangcheng basalts (J.T. Guo et al, 2013;Zhang et al, 2002); Cenozoic basalts (Chen et al, 2009).…”
