Early Evolution of Himalayan Orogenic Belt and Generation of Middle Eocene Magmatism: Constraint From Haweng Granodiorite Porphyry in the Tethyan Himalaya

Early Evolution of Himalayan Orogenic Belt and Generation of Middle Eocene Magmatism: Constraint From Haweng Granodiorite Porphyry in the Tethyan Himalaya

Although the Himalayan orogenic belt is dominant by Oligocene to Miocene leucogranites, it initiated magmatic activity from middle Eocene. However, the exact distribution and genesis of early magmatism are yet to be resolved. This study identified new outcrops of middle Eocene magmatism, Haweng gran...
