| Mesozoic Extension in Northern Tibetan Plataeu:~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar Analyses and MDD Modeling |
| The >300 km long, east striking Lapeiquan fault lies in the eastern Altyn Tagh range along the northern margin of the Tibetan plateau. Geological mapping conducted by Sino America Altyn Group led by An Yin (UCLA) shows that the fault is in fact a south dipping normal fault with its dip angle locally as shallow as <30° Sedimentary and thermochronologic evidence constrains the age of Lapeiquan fault: the Early Middle Jurassic strata can be interpreted as deposits in an extensional basin above the fault; 40 Ar/ 39 Ar thermochronologic analyses and MDD modeling of K feldspars from the footwall of the fault indicate two preminent cooling events. The older event occurred in the latest Triassic earliest Jurassic between ～220 and 187 Ma, while the younger event occurred in the latest Early Cretaceous at ～100 Ma. The older event is suggested to represent its main stage of the normal faulting. Mesozoic extension in Tibet and other parts of eastern Asia is attributed to back arc extension during subduction of the Tethys ocean in the south and the Pacific plate in the east. |
