Zhuo Wang, Yue Hai, Datian Wu, D. V. Subba Rao, Fengming Xu , et al. · 2025

The Apuseni-Banat-Timok-Srednogorie Metallogenic Belt is one of the most important polymetallic metallogenic belts in the western segment of the Tethys, where numerous porphyry-type, skarn-type, and epithermal deposits are developed. Howev…

Evaluation and Classification of Uranium Prospective Areas in Madagascar: A Geochemical Block-Based Approach Open

Datian Wu, Junan Liu, Mirana Razoeliarimalala, Tiangang Wang, Rachel Razafimbelo , et al. · 2025

The Precambrian crystalline basement of Madagascar, shaped by its diverse geological history of magmatic activity, sedimentation, and metamorphism, is divided into six distinct geological units. Within this intricate geological framework, …

A New Insight into the Genesis of Graphite Deposits in Madagascar Using U–Pb Zircon Dating and Electron Microprobe Analysis Open

Mingjian Yang, Yongjun Di, Da Zhang, Datian Wu, Fang Ye , et al. · 2024

Madagascar is globally recognized as an important producer of high-quality flaky graphite. However, current research on graphite deposits in Madagascar remains insufficient. Previous studies have linked the genesis of Madagascan graphite d…

Long-term denudation and topographic relief evolution of Central and Northern Madagascar Open

Romano Clementucci, Sean D. Willett, Yanyan Wang, Datian Wu, Negar Haghipour , et al. · 2024

The landscape of Central and Northern Madagascar is characterized by residual landforms, steep slopes, and low-relief areas, resulting mainly from the processes of dissection of the central high plateau and retreat of two main topographic …

The Role of Weathering on Morphology and Rates of Escarpment Retreat of the Rift Margin of Madagascar Open

Yanyan Wang, Sean D. Willett, Datian Wu · 2023

A great escarpment at a rift margin can correspond directly to a major water divide, but at many margins, including in Madagascar, the escarpment often appears as a steep knickzone on rivers that have their main water divides into the inte…

大兴安岭北段免渡河地区晚石炭世二长花岗岩成因：锆石U⁃Pb年代学、Hf同位素和地球化学证据 Open

Fengming Xu, Wei Sun, Datian Wu, Kuiliang Wang, Yongheng Zhou · 2022

摘要: 为了确定大兴安岭北段晚石炭世二长花岗岩的成因及其构造背景，对免渡河地区二长花岗岩样品进行了锆石U⁃Pb年代学、Hf同位素及地球化学分析测试.锆石U⁃Pb测年结果显示，二长花岗岩形成于307~308 Ma，为晚石炭世岩浆活动的产物.主量元素特征表明，二长花岗岩具有富碱（全碱=7.28%~9.08%）、高钾（K2O=3.45%~5.54%）和弱过铝质（A/CNK=1.02~1.19）特征，属高钾钙碱性I型花岗岩.微量元素特征表明，二长花岗岩具有中等的负铕异常（δEu=0…
