Paleozoic convergence processes in the southwestern Central Asian Orogenic Belt: Insights from U–Pb dating of detrital zircons from West Junggar, northwestern China

The West Junggar orogen, located in the southwestern Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB), preserves an abundant record of tectonic processes associated with the evolution of the Junggar Ocean. In this study, we use detrital zircon U–Pb age data from Ordovician to Carboniferous sandstones in the south...
