“…The provenance of zircon in Taiwan Island is a matter of controversy. Potential sources include the YC [71], CF [22], NCC [25] and a subducted unknown microcontinent [52]. As shown in Figure 6, the zircon U-Pb age proportions of samples close to Taiwan Island in our study looks similar to those from the Yangtze source.…”

“…Although Taiwan Island is relatively small in area, it has a very complicated geological history. It is marked by a Mesozoic basement and a mélange assembly in the Tananao Complex, slate formations of the Eocene-early Oligocene in the Hsuehsan Range and the late Oligocene to Pleistocene at the West Foothills [52]. Similarly, the Korean fluvial sediments may be derived mainly from the Precambrian igneous and metamorphic rocks [53] and Jurassic-Cretaceous granites and schists [54].…”

“…In particular, the ~1.8 Ga peak is most pronounced in Zhuoshui sand and prominent in the sand of the Yangtze and most of its major tributaries (figures 8-11 in He et al, 2013), but subdued or negligible in all other catchments of southern China (Lüliangian peak in Figure 7). This indicates that major sediment supply from the Yangtze River may account for the relative abundance of monazite grains with ages of ~1.8 Ga found in Miocene sandstones of western Taiwan without the need to invoke supply from a hidden microcontinent, as proposed by Chen, Lee, et al (2019). Zircon-age spectra thus indicate that Neogene sandstones of the western Taiwan foothills were mostly derived by a paleo-Yangtze River, with possible additional contributions from the North China Block (Deng, Yang, Li, et al, 2017).…”

“…(a) Mg-(Fe + Mn)-Ca plot (Mange & Morton, 2007): Type A garnet is mainly derived from granulite-facies metasedimentary rocks, type B from granitoid (subtype Bi) and amphibolite-facies metasedimentary rocks (subtype Bii), type C from high-grade metabasites (subtype Ci) and pyroxenites and peridotites (subtype Cii), and type D from skarns, very low-grade metabasites or calc-silicate granulites. (b) Mg-Mn-Ca plot (Win et al, 2007) age population (Chen, Lee, et al, 2019). This issue will be discussed further below.…”
