“…The interpretations of these tectono‐thermal events have long been controversial (Faure et al, 2018; Grabau, 1924; Guo et al, 1963, 1965; Huang, 1945; Lin, Xing, Davis, Wu, et al, 2018; Lin, Xing, Davis, Yin, et al, 2018; Ma et al, 1961; Ren, 1964; Shu et al, 2009, 2011, 2014, 2015, 2018, 2020, 2021; Shu, Deng, et al, 2008; Shu, Faure, et al, 2008; Shui, 1988). The Cathaysia Block was proposed to show clearly intracontinental orogenesis since the Neoproterozoic for a long time (e.g., Faure et al, 2018; Ren & Li, 2016; Shu et al, 2018, 2020, 2021; Zhang et al, 2013). However, new research and new data argue that a multi‐terrane accretion‐collision model can readily explain the five tectono‐thermal events and better understanding for the assembly of the Cathaysia Block (e.g., Lin, Xing, Davis, Wu, et al, 2018; Lin, Xing, Davis, Yin, et al, 2018; Liu et al, 2021).…”
