Major tectonic elements and Devonian and early Carboniferous metallogenic belts for northeast Asia
This volume will contain, upon completion, a series of interpretative articles on the metallogenesis and tectonics of Northeast Asia. The volume consists of the following chapters and appendices.
Chapters A through C provide an overview of the geology and metallogenesis of the region, an explanation of the methodology of regional metallogenic and tectonic analysis employed for the project, and descriptions of mineral deposit models (types) for the project. Chapters D through H provide descriptions of the characteristics and interpretations of the origins of the major geologic units, metallogenic belts, and major mineral deposits for a series of time slices that range from the Archean to the Present. Chapter I presents a description of an integrated metallogenic and tectonic model for the region. And chapter J presents (1) a dynamic tectonic and metallogenic model for the region, and (2) a comprehensive series of geologic maps, mineral deposit location map, and metallogenic belt maps, and descriptions of map units for the region.
