Precambrian terrains of Central Asian orogenic belt: comparative characteristics, types and peculiarities of the tectonic evolution
2019
The structure and peculiarities of the tectonic evolution of Precambrian terraines included into the structure of Paleozoids in different parts of the Central Asian orogenic belt are reviewed, types and comparative characteristics of Precambrian terraines are provided. We throw light on two types of Precambrian terrains structure: essentially juvenile Neoproterozoic crust (1); Mezo- and Early Neoproterozoic crust formed due to reworking of Early Precambrian formations (2). Terrains with juvenile Neoproterozioc crust, located in the Central and Eastern parts of the Central Asian orogenic belt, were generated in the oceanic sector of the Earth. Their formation was connected to the Early- and Late Neoproterozoic cycles of tectogenesis up to 200 Ma each cycle. Terrains with Mezo- and Early Neoproterozoic crust, found mainly in the West of the Central Asian orogenic belt, generated in the continental sector of the Earth during the Neoproterozoic, their evolution occurred mainly in the intracontinental environments. In the evolution all of considered terrains in the interval 800–700 Ma, an event associated with rift zones formation and intraplate magmatism was revealed, it coincided with the supercontinent Rodinia split. The conducted research allow to connect formation history of the Precambrian terrains of the Central Asian orogenic belt with the processes took place in the edge of the Syberia-Tarim part of the supercontinent Rodinia and the adjacent sector of the paleo-ocean.
