英文摘要Li and Powell (1998) are proponents of the popular Rodinia reconstruction which they use to challenge our revised assessment of the Neoproterozoic location of South China. We note the serious difficulties with the Rodinia configuration. These include (i) the requirement for a similar to 730 Ma break up although the geological evidence for this event puts the figure at similar to 550 Ma and (ii) the large scale, rapid and differential continental movements that are required to achieve the Gondwana reconstruction by late Neoproterozoic/early Phanerozoic times. The 850-550 Ma palaeomagnetic data are shown to accord with a conservative reconstruction which overcomes these problems and is analogous to Pangaea (Palaeopangaea). This reconstruction implies that the late Neoproterozoic transition to Gondwana was achieved mainly by sinistral transpression along the Pan African belts accompanying extinction of the Afro-Arabian are. A putative collision between blocks grouped as East and West Gondwana, which were supposedly widely separated in mid-Neoproterozoic times, is not required. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
