This open access book presents a new structural model of multi-arc-basin-terrane system based
on the in-depth research of the Nujiang-Lancangjiang-Jinshajiang region especially several
Paleo-Tethys ophiolitic mélange belts and sets of arc-basin systems and a new orogenic model
of The Hengduan shan Mountains based on penetrated research on spatial-temporal framework and
orogenic models of different orogenic belts under large-scale strike-slip-shear-nappe
structures evolution. The authors paid special attention on the coupling relation between
orogeny and metallogenesis. The metallogenesis and dynamic process are probed under the
crust-mantle interaction and material-energy exchange-transmission background and the tectonic
units evolution. The ore genesis and distribution of deposits have been thoroughly analyzed
and the metallogenic theories of multi-arc-basin-terrane and intracontinental tectonic
transformation in the Nujiang-Lancangjiang-Jinshajiang region have been carriedout. This book
also illustrates how to explore metallic deposits in the Nujiang-Lancangjiang-Jinshajiang
region by using the metallogenic regulations. Meanwhile this book has high reference value for
researchers working in the fields of basic geology environmental geology and energy geology.
