Description

This book by Vietnamese and Russian authors is the first of its kind and combines the extensive knowledge on the petrology and metallogeny of the late Paleozoic � early Mesozoic and Cenozoic periods in North Vietnam. The Permian � Triassic and Paleogene volcano-plutonic and plutonic associations are two important geological events in the evolutionary history of Southeast Asia, including the 260 � 250 Ma Emeishan mantle plume and Indian-Eurasia collision at 60 � 55 M. The volume includes 9 chapters,� divided into 3 parts. Part 1 introduces the geological structure of North Vietnam; Part 2 covers the Permian � Triassic magma associations and metallogeny; and Part 3 focuses on� the Cenozoic magma associations and metallogeny. In each chapter, the geological setting of magmas, classification of different geological structures, and� composition characteristics, such as mineralogy, geochemistry, isotope systematics and geochronology are discussed.� This� book represents an important reference document for international and Vietnamese geologists engaged in the geological� history and metallogeny of Vietnam, an important area� of the Asian continent. The monograph also has a practical significance in contributing new premises and� to assess rare and precious mineral prospects. In addition, it can be regarded as a necessary data base for petrological and metallogenic projects and university courses.Typham this is the title: Intraplate Magmatism and Metallogeny of North Vietnam
