No major temporal provenance variation on the Chinese Loess Plateau since the late Miocene — insight from stable heavy mineral ratios

Heavy mineral assemblages have been demonstrated effective in tracking the dust provenance younger than 500 ka on the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP). However, prior to 500 ka, diagenetic alternation has proven to affect the validity of heavy mineral assemblage in indicating loess provenance. In order t...
