Abstract

AbstractThe geodynamic evolution of the East Junggar is examined by means of satellite imaging and field‐based structural studies, U‐Pb zircon geochronology and analysis of potential field geophysical data in the Yemaquan arc and the Dulate back‐arc systems. The northern Yemaquan arc shows a pervasive WNW–ESE steep S1 foliation that is related to the exhumation of Armantai ophiolitic mélange in an F1 antiformal structure. The bedding of the Dulate sequences is folded by N–S‐trending F1 upright folds that are preserved in low strain domains. The timing of D1 is estimated between 310 and 280 Ma. During D2, previously folded Dulate sequences were orthogonally refolded by E–W‐trending F2 upright folds, resulting in Type‐1 basin and dome interference pattern and pervasive E–W trending S2 cleavage zones. The age of D2 is constrained to be 270–250 Ma based on the dating of syn‐tectonic pegmatites and deposition of syn‐orogenic sedimentary rocks. The boundary between the Yemaquan arc and Dulate back‐arc basin experienced reactivation through D2 dextral transpressive shear zones. The D1 fabrics are the consequence of the closure of the Dulate back‐arc basin due to the advancing mode of Kalamaili subduction. Almost orthogonal Permian D2 fabrics were generated by the N–S shortening of the East Junggar and the northward movement of the Junggar Block indenter. This D2 deformation was associated with the anticlockwise rotation of the southern limb of the Mongolian Orocline, the scissor‐like closure of the northerly Mongol‐Okhotsk Ocean and the collision of the Mongolian and the Tarim–North China craton collages.
