Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Paleo-Mesozoic tectonic development of proto-Japan is discussed from detrital-zircon-age spectra and a review of the zircon age of igneous rocks in the world. The Middle Paleozoic sandstone, having Meso- to Neoproterozoic zircons, was mostly deposited along a Gondwana margin. The Permian sandstone, having only coeval zircons, was likely deposited in an island-arc setting. Supply of Paleoproterozoic zircons from North China started in Late Permian-Middle Jurassic times. Thus, Gondwana-derived separate island arcs seem to have successively amalgamated to the North China margin. The Lower Cretaceous of NE Japan contained certain amounts of coeval zircons. The Early Cretaceous igneous rocks are limited along the eastern coast of South China and in some extensional basins of Central Asia. Combining paleobiogeographic data, I interpret that these Lower Cretaceous beds were deposited along the South China coast, suggesting that the part of NE Asia moved relatively southward along the coast.
