International audienceMesozoic rift basins locally bounding metamorphic core complexes have been recognized in Transbaikalia and northern China. Numerous basement outcrops located between these two regions, in eastern Mongolia, are considered as pre-Palaeozoic in age. One of these, the Ereendavaa Range, appears as a gneissic core marked by amphibolite-facies metamorphic conditions. The range is overlain to the NW by the unmetamorphosed Mesozoic Onon Basin. Below the basin, the upper part of the range consists of a gently NW-dipping shear zone associated with top-to-the-NW motion. The structural pattern is consistent with syn-extensional exhumation of the range. Preliminary geochronological data indicate that the shear zone is late Jurassic to early Cretaceous in age, coeval with the Onon Basin. These new data from eastern Mongolia constitute a link between Transbaikalia and northern China, indicating that NW-SE extensional Mesozoic tectonics occurred throughout the entire region

“…To date, over 25 million ounces of gold have been mined in the Carlin Trend from 26 separate past-producing or operating mines (Teal and Jackson, 1997). Besides the SHDG ore deposits found in the U.S.A., deposits have been reported elsewhere, and these include some so called Carlin-like gold deposits which are genetically associated with magmatic activity, i.e., in China, Hungary, Ukraine, Iran, Slovakia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Greece, Spain, Mongolia, Peru, Italy, and Canada (Turner et al, 1994;Shumlyanskiy and Ivantishina, 1998;Knesl and Kneslova, 1999;Korpas and Hofstra, 1999;Lattanzi, 1999;Asadi et al, 2000;Cluer et al, 2000).…”
