Metallogenic Theory and Exploration Technology of Multi-Arc-Basin-Terrane Collision Orogeny in ?Sanjiang? Region, Southwest China

This open access book presents a new structural model of ?multi-arc-basin-terrane system? based on the in-depth research of the Nujiang-Lancangjiang-Jinshajiang region, especially several Paleo-Tethys ophiolitic me?lange belts and sets of arc-basin systems, and a new orogenic model of ?The Hengduan shan Mountains? based on penetrated research on spatial-temporal framework and orogenic models of different orogenic belts under large-scale strike-slip-shear-nappe structures evolution. The authors paid special attention on the coupling relation between orogeny and metallogenesis. The metallogenesis and dynamic process are probed under the crust?mantle interaction and material-energy exchange-transmission background and the tectonic units evolution. The ore genesis and distribution of deposits have been thoroughly analyzed, and the metallogenic theories of “multi-arc-basin-terrane” and “intracontinental tectonic transformation” in the Nujiang-Lancangjiang-Jinshajiang region have been carriedout. This book also illustrates how to explore metallic deposits in the Nujiang-Lancangjiang-Jinshajiang region by using the metallogenic regulations. Meanwhile, this book has high reference value for researchers working in the fields of basic geology, environmental geology, and energy geology.
