英文摘要 | India - Asian collision and former terrane amalgamation yielded the largest collisional orogenic belt of Tibet in the world, and subsequently resulted in the formation of the Tibetan Plateau. However, it is controversial about the relationship between the orogenesis and Tibetan Plateau uplift. Based on a comprehensive summary of the data obtained during past decades, it is proposed that the India - Asia collision took place at similar to 55 Ma. The break - off of the Neo - Tethyan oceanic plate caused a large scale of Paleocene - Eocene granites and volcanic rocks in the Gangdese area with the first stage of significant uplift of the plateau. The continued northward movement of the Indian plate and subduction beneath the Asian plate resulted in the lithospheric thickening of the whole orogen, which was lithospherically delaminated at similar to 26 Ma with development of coeval potassium - ultra potassium magmatic activities and large scale of crustal uplift and erosion. Since Miocene, the Tibetan plateau was not uplifted significantly except for some local areas. Therefore, it is proposed that the uplift of the Tibetan Plateau was caused by collapse of the Tibetan orogen, rather than by the direct collision between India and Asia. |
