The research resultsindicate that the rock assemblage of the studied granitoids involves diopside syenite-diopsidegranite-biotite (monzonitic) granite, consisting mainly of K-feldspar, oligoclase, quartz,iron-phlogolite, diopside and edenite. The rocks are rich in mantle-derived fluid components ofvolatiles including F, alkali metal elements such as K, Na, Rb, Sr and Ha, and radiogenicheat-producing elements such as U and Th. They were generated by the influx of mantle-derived fluidsinto the lower crest to give rise to partial melting during the lithosphere thinning in theQinghai-Tibet plateau.展开更多

The uplift and denudation at the southeast margin of Tibet plateau can be represented by that of the WYP. Based on the uplift of ancient plantain surface, river terrace and sedimentary response in peripheral basins of the WYP, suggest that the WYP experienced a rapid uplift and denudation in Quaternary. The WYP have been uplifted about 610～700m, and eroded away about 1095～1600m since Quaternary, average denudation rate reach 0 68～0 94mm/a. Uplift rates in different time interval were calculated according to river terrace. Relations between WYP and Tibetan plateau are discussed further..The Yinggehai basin located at the south termination of the Red River fault, it is the younger (mainly Neogene) pull\|apart basin, which developed at releasing bend of the Red River right\|lateral wrench fault. Since the Neogene, the subsidence center of the Yinggehai basin shifted southward and, connected with the Southeast Hainan basin. Both basins collected large amounts of the Holocene and Quaternary deposits of marine origin. They are peripheral marine basin of the WYP.. Silicate clastic sediments in both basins have been large supported from the WYP into both basins through the Red River system. The total volumes derived from the WYP in the Neogene and Quaternary is 2 8004×10 14 t(1 and 5 1206×10 14 t. The sedimentation rate in Yinggehai basin rose from 0 52mm/a in the Neogene to 1 39mm/a in the Quaternary. The facts that accumulation volume and sedimentation rate rose greatly after the Neogene, suggested a rapid uplift in the WYP. The rapid uplift was responsible for the unconformity between the Neogene and Quaternary. Elevation of ancient planation surface,and river terrace supported the rapid uplift of the WYP also. The ancient planation surface was elevated from 2500～2600m to 3000～3200m during Quaternary, seven terraces in Tue can be traced through the field area in elevation from 20 5m to 612m above the modern river surface in the Lancang River. The Jinsha River also incised into bed rocks about 700m in Shigu. All the facts suggest that southeast margin of Tibet plateau rose rapidly; the plateau was elevated about 610～700m in the Quaternary.展开更多

The scholars abroad have reconstructed uplift history of the plateau by studying geological process of the inner globe, they considered that the altitude of the plateau got up to the maximum at 14Ma (M.Coleman et al, 1995; S.Turner et al, 1993)or the plateau got to the present elevation at about 8Ma (T.M.Harrison,1992). The Chinese geologists make use of substitutes of outer environmental elements to deduce that the uplift of Qinghai—Tibet plateau began from 3 4Ma(Li Jijun,1995). It is obvious that there are the different views and controversies about the plateau uplift history.展开更多
