Produktbeschreibung

Early Continent Evolution of the North China Craton discusses the tectono-thermal regimes of the early continental crust in the North China Craton (NCC) from the Hadean to the early Paleoproterozoic, reconstructing the evolutional framework, and facilitating comprehensive understanding of the early continent evolution of the NCC. The book systematically summarizes the Neoarchean metamorphism of the NCC and discusses the implications for the tectonic models of the NCC, through compiling evolutional information of the Hadean to the early Paleoproterozoic sequences in the NCC. This allows for comprehensive summarizations and discussions on the tectonic framework of the NCC during this critical period.

Researchers, academics and students in geology (especially Precambrian Geology), geomorphology, geophysics and geological engineering will benefit from using this book in applying tectonic models to other cratonic blocks globally, and will understand evolutional information of the largest and oldest cratonic block in China.

• Completely covers all key issues and research frontiers of the early continental evolution of the North China Craton (NCC), from the Hadean to the early Paleoproterozoic
• Systematically summarizes the Neoarchaean metamorphism of the NCC and discusses the implications for tectonic models
• Includes discussion on controversial views on tectonic regimes of the NCC during the Archean to early Paleoproterozoic, with objective conclusions
