Northward subduction of the Neo-Tethyan oceanic lithosphere beneath South Asia gave rise to an Andean-type convergent margin with arc magmatism starting since at least the early Jurassic and lasting until the Eocene. This study reports geochemical and Sr-Nd isotope data of the early Cretaceous (∼133-110 Ma) to Paleocene (∼60 Ma) magmatic belt...

The Linzizong volcanic successions that crop out in the Lhasa terrane, southern Tibet have been conventionally regarded as the products of northward subduction of the Neotethyan oceanic slab beneath South Asia. This study reports geochemical data of 100+ volcanic rocks from the Lhasa terrane to better constrain the temporal-spatial distribution...
