Abstract

New structural, petrographic, and 40 Ar/ 39 Ar data constrain the kinematics of the ASRR (Ailao Shan‐Red River shear zone). In the XueLong Shan (XLS), geochronological data reveal Triassic, Early Tertiary, and Oligo‐Miocene thermal events. The latter event (33–26 Ma) corresponds to cooling during le...
