Zircon geochemistry provides insights into tectonic history and evolution of the Neotethys Ocean.
High-precision U-Pb isotopic data from zircon reveals timeframes of geological processes during the Mesozoic.
Samples from gabbro and roddingite demonstrate diverse trace element compositions, indicating varied geological environments.
Findings enhance understanding of Mesozoic tectonic activity in southern Tibet and implications for oceanic structures.

Implication

Geochemical analysis explores zircon isotopic compositions in the Xigaze ophiolite, suggesting insights into Neotethys tectonics.

Abstract

Tables S1–S5, which show SIMS zircon U-Pb isotopic compositions, zircon trace element compositions, zircon Lu-Hf isotope compositions, LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb isotopic compositions and zircon O isotope compositions in gabbro and rodingite from the Xigaze ophiolite.
