Sedimentary provenance supports a mid-paleozoic tectonic connection between the Junggar and Altai terranes in central Asia

Abstract The provenance of Precambrian detritus in the Junggar and Altai terranes provides crucial constraints on the peri-Siberian accretionary tectonic evolution in the middle Paleozoic. The Precambrian detrital zircons have no coeval magmatic equivalents in the Junggar terrane but show U–Pb age s...
