Mantle xenoliths and host basalts record the Paleo-Asian oceanic materials in the mantle wedge beneath northwest North China Craton

Oceanic subduction is an important trigger for mantle heterogeneity, which further increases melt production and controls the compositions of intraplate basalts. Such a role played by the (Paleo-) Pacific subduction have been extensively studied and well constrained based on the widespread mantle xe...
