Fossil Subduction Zone Beneath the Eastern Yangtze Craton: Evidence From Seismic Reflections in the Upper Mantle

Abstract The Yangtze Craton in South China is generally regarded as an Archean‐Paleoproterozoic continental nucleus with a coherent basement that collided with the Cathaysia Block in the Early Neoproterozoic. Here we reprocessed a 300‐km‐long NW‐trending seismic reflection profile in the eastern Yan...
