英文摘要 | Knowledge of the size of Greater India is critical to deciphering the geodynamic processes of the India-Asia collision, as the size of this landmass primarily determines the amount of continental subduction and crustal shortening. Recently, paleomagnetic data revealed the rapid drift of a Himalayan microcontinent (i.e., the Tibetan Himalaya) during ca. 75-61 Ma, which resulted in a triple-stage India-Asia collision scenario. This scenario implies a relatively small Greater India at 75 Ma (Late Cretaceous), but this hypothesis is only based on one high quality Campanian paleomagnetic pole from the eastern part of the Tethyan Himalaya. Here we report comprehensive petrographic, rock magnetic and paleomagnetic studies on Upper Cretaceous oceanic affinity red beds (CORBs) of the Chuangde Formation from the central part of the Tethyan Himalaya at 83.6 degrees E longitude. These CORBs are characterized by multi-component magnetizations carried dominantly by detrital hematite, which retains a primary remanent magnetization. Accordingly, the high temperature magnetization components (585 690 degrees C) were isolated by high-resolution thermal demagnetization. The new paleomagnetic data provide, after applying an inclination shallowing correction, a Campanian paleopole of 43.3 degrees N/258.3 degrees E, which places the central part of the Tethyan Himalaya at a paleolatitude of 16.7 degrees +/- 1.8 degrees S at ca. 75 Ma. Comparison of this paleolatitude with the expected paleolatitude of India, using its apparent polar wander path, shows that the N-S extent of central Greater India was similar to 910 km during the middle Campanian. Our paleomagnetic data are in agreement with balanced cross section reconstructions and seismologic interpretations of the India-Asia collision zone and provide additional support for the North India Sea hypothesis. The improved estimate of the size of Greater India has several implications for Indian continental crust behavior and results in an updated reconstruction of the India-Asia collision system in the Campanian. |
