Focusing on issues of when and how Archean crust in the craton was
formed, this PhD thesis book presents major research outcomes of
field based metamorphic, geochemical and geochronological
investigations on Meso-Neoarchean basement rocks from Shandong
Province in the Eastern Block of the North China Craton. Based on
major findings and new data, the author proposes that the formation
and evolution of Archean crust was governed by mantle plumes, not
by plate tectonics. As one of the oldest cratonic blocks in the
world containing rocks as old as 3.85 billion years, the formation
and evolution of North China Craton is still controversial.
Therefore this book will be of value to anyone interested in the
evolution of cratonic blocks and Precambrian geology.
