A suite of diabase dikes and sills from the Early Jurassic period have been discovered in the Langjiexue Group, which is part of the Tethyan sedimentary sequence. These rocks were formed through partial melting of depleted mantle in a continental extension setting.
An Early Jurassic (similar to 196 Ma, laser ablation multiple-collector ICP-MS zircon U-Pb ages) suite of diabase dikes and sills has been identified within the Late Triassic Langjiexue Group, part of the Tethyan sedimentary sequence that is composed of shale and fine-grained sandstone. More primitive rocks (MgO > 8.0 wt%) from this suite are characterized by mid-ocean ridge basalt-like rare earth element distribution patterns and isotope (Sr and Nd) compositions, as well as relatively high contents of mantle-compatible elements (e.g., Cr, Ni, and Co), which indicates that they were derived from partial melting of depleted mantle. Younger (similar to 140 Ma) mafic magmatism in the region has been proposed to represent the initial breakup of the eastern Gondwana continent and the opening of the Indian Ocean. We propose that the similar to 196 Ma diabases developed in a continental extension setting and represent the products of melting of depleted mantle within or on the margin of the Neo-Tethyan Ocean.
