The Solonker-Xar Moron-Changchun-Yanji Suture Zone is the result of the final closure of the Paleo-Asian Ocean (PAO). However, the closure time of the PAO in Northeast China remains controversial. The Hunchun area is located in the easternmost part of the Solonker-Xar Moron-Changchun-Yanji Suture Zone. Tectonism and magmatism in the Hunchun area can provide important information for understanding the late-stage evolution of the PAO. In this study, our zircon U-Pb ages show that the granodiorites and diorites in the Hunchun were formed at 282.3–251.4 Ma. This geochronological evidence suggests prolonged Permian magmatism in the Hunchun area. Whole-rock geochemistry, zircon trace, and Lu-Hf isotope data show that all the intrusive rocks are mainly calc-alkaline series to arc tholeiite series. Granodiorites are I-type granites formed by the partial melting of juvenile lower crust derived from the mantle. Diorites show similar characteristics to the sanukitic high-Mg diorite and are formed by the partial melting of the depleted mantle metasomatized by subduction sediments and/or slab-derived fluids. These results indicate that the Permian diorites and granodiorites in the Hunchun area formed in an active continental margin setting related to the subduction of the PAO plate. Significantly, sudden changes in the whole-rock Sr/Y and (La/Yb)N ratios and zircon εHf(t) values are observed in the Late Permian-Early Triassic igneous rocks in the eastern Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB). This indicates that the final closure of the PAO in Northeast China likely occurred in the Late Permian-Early Triassic.
