The Early Permian Tarim Large Igneous Province in Northwest China ― Tectonics, Petrology, Geochemistry, and Geophysics

The Early Permian Tarim Large Igneous Province in Northwest China: Tectonics, Petrology, Geochemistry, and Geophysics is the first book to introduce the Early Permian Tarim Large Igneous Province. Based on more than twenty years of study, this book systematically presents time-spatial, geochemical and geodynamic features, along with the metallogenesis and magma evolution of the Early Permian Tarim Large Igneous Province. Furthermore, it provides a new geodynamic model for Large Igneous Provinces. It is intended for researchers and graduate students in tectonics, igneous petrology, geochemistry, geophysics, earth evolution and planetary geology in addition to mining industry professionals.

• Provides the temporal-spatial features of the Early Permian Tarim Large Igneous Province using seismic and borehole data
• Presents petrological and geochemical features and magma evolution of the rock units in Early Permian Tarim Large Igneous Province
• Builds up a new model for Large Igneous Provinces based on the information from the Early Permian Tarim Large Igneous Province
