Detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology and fluvial basin evolution of the Liuqu Conglomerate within the Yarlung Zangbo Suture Zone: A critical geochronometer for the collision tectonics of the Tibetan-Himalayan Orogenic Belt
We present new U-Pb detrital zircon ages, depositional history and tectonic model for the Liuqu Conglomerate (LQC) in southern Tibet that represents a critical geochronometer for the collision history of the Tibetan-Himalayan Orogenic Belt. LQC is a ∼5 km–thick, late Mesozoic–Cenozoic molasse deposi...
