What is SHRIMP U–Pb Zircon Ages, Geochemistry and Sr–Nd–Hf Isotope Systematics of the Zalute Intrusive Suite in the Southern Great Xing’an Range, NE China: Petrogenesis and Geodynamical Implications about?

An integrated zircon geochronological, elemental geochemical, and Sr–Nd–Hf isotopic investigation was carried out on a suite of dioritic–granitic rocks at Zalute in the southern Great Xing’an Range (SGXR), NE China, in order to probe the source and petrogenesis of these granitoid rocks and further constrain the geodynamical setting of early Early Cretaceous magmatism. The results of Sensitive High-Resolution Ion Micro Probe (SHRIMP) zircon U–Pb dating reveal that the Zalute dioritic–granitic rocks have a consistent crystallization age of ca. 137–136 Ma, consisting of quartz diorite (136 ± 1.4 Ma), monzogranite (136 ± 0.8 Ma), and granite porphyry (137 ± 1.3 Ma), which record an early Early Cretaceous magmatic intrusion. Geochemically, the quartz diorites, monzogranites, and granite porphyries are mostly high-K calc-alkaline and show features of typical I-type affinity. They possess uniform and depleted Sr–Nd–Hf isotopic compositions (e.g., initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios of 0.7035 to 0.7049, εNd(t) of −0.02 to +2.61, and εHf(t) of +6.8 to +9.6), reflecting a common source, whose parental magma is best explained as resulting from the partial melting of juvenile source rocks in the lower cr
