Abstract:Studies of petrology and isotope geology have shown that the eclogite-bearing Jiaonan block has experienced a rapid decompression after its high-temperature and pressure metamorphic process, as reflected by a uplift-extension structure. This uplift-extension structure takes two forms in the Jiaonan block. One is vertical shortening and horizontal extension structure in the internal block and characterized by the deformation of light veins,reflecting the inversion from deep level to shallow level as well An...
