Nonglacial origin for low-δ18O Neoproterozoic magmas in the South China Block: Evidence from new in-situ oxygen isotope analyses using SIMS

Low-δ18O signatures in supracrustal rocks have been used as geochemical proxies for cold paleoclimates, e.g., glaciations. Unusual low-δ18O values found in Neoproterozoic igneous rocks in parts of the South China Block have thus been genetically linked to Neoproterozoic glaciation events. However, w...
