The Overmaraat-Gol Alkaline Pluton in Northern Mongolia: U–Pb Age and Preliminary Implications for Magma Sources and Tectonic Setting

The Overmaraat-Gol Alkaline Pluton in Northern Mongolia: U–Pb Age and Preliminary Implications for Magma Sources and Tectonic Setting

A new Wenlockian zircon U–Pb age (~426 Ma) of the Overmaraat-Gol nepheline syenite (foyaite, juvite) pluton in the SW Lake Hovsgol area (Northern Mongolia) prompts a long history of alkaline magmatism in the western Central Asian Orogenic Belt, exceeding the duration of the Devonian and Pe...
