Petrology, geochronology and geochemistry of ca. 780 Ma A-type granites in South China: Petrogenesis and implications for crustal growth during the breakup of the supercontinent Rodinia

There are widespread Neoproterozoic (830–740 Ma) calc-alkaline intrusive rocks in the South China Block, which has been considered a part of the Precambrian supercontinent Rodinia. The tectonic setting of these rocks, however, remains in dispute. Two distinctly different interpretations, continental...
