Supplemental Material: Zircon geochemistry of the Xigaze ophiolite in southern Tibet: Insights into the tectonic evolution of the Neotethys Ocean in the Mesozoic

Key Points

• MAIN FINDING: Zircon analyses indicate distinct isotopic signatures in the Xigaze ophiolite.
• KEY EVIDENCE: The study presents data from U-Pb, Lu-Hf, and O isotopic compositions of zircon from the ophiolite.
• APPROACH: Laser ablation techniques were employed to measure various isotopic compositions of zircon.
• SIGNIFICANCE: These findings provide insights into the tectonic processes involved in the evolution of the Neotethys Ocean.
