Newly discovered basalts in the Dabure area (central Qiangtang block, northern Tibet) were subjected to laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) U-Pb zircon dating, geochemical analyses, and zircon Hf isotope analyses. Dating of magmatic zircons from three basalt samples indicates that the Dabure basalts formed during the late Ediacaran (similar to 550Ma). Xenocrystic zircons yield ages of 700-1150Ma, providing evidence of the Cryogenian crust in the Tibet block. The Dabure basalts are alkaline, rich in Ti and Fe, and are strongly enriched in light rare earth elements without Eu anomalies. The basalts are geochemically similar to within-plate basalts but are relatively depleted in Nb and Ta. Although the analysed zircons show differences in their Hf isotope compositions, the geochemical data suggest that the Dabure basalts were derived from enriched mantle and that the source magmas were contaminated by the continental crust. The basalts may have erupted during rifting at similar to 550Ma (from the dating of magmatic zircons), and may have been a product of the initial breakup of Gondwanaland.
