Intraoceanic Subduction System Within the Neo‐Tethys: Evidence From Late Cretaceous Arc Magmatic Rocks of the Eastern Himalaya

Zeming Zhang,

Abstract: The tectonic evolution of the Neo‐Tethys Ocean remains highly controversial, with several models existing in the community that conflict with each other. Here, we present new geochronologic and geochemical data for orthogneisses and amphibolites from the Greater Himalayan Sequence, eastern Himalayan orogen, which indicate that these rocks have Cenozoic metamorphic ages (∼52–3 Ma), but were derived from Late Cretaceous (∼89 Ma) magmas with arc‐like and depleted mantle geochemical signatures. Considering that no… Show more
