"Structural restoration of an Eo-Mesoarchean (3.8–2.9 Ga) terrane, East" by Zhonghua Tian and Allen P. Nutman
Ancient gneissic terranes are critical rare materials that can reveal the Earth's early crustal evolution. This paper presents reconstruction of the oldest Eo-Mesoarchean gneissic terrane (3.8–2.9 Ga) in the eastern North China Craton that was partitioned by the ENE-WSW striking Tanghe-Hanling strike-slip fault (THF). The THF is a splay off the Tanlu fault zone and has been traced for 130 km and is 1–1.5 km wide. The THF has a 28 km sinistral offset, which has been established by detail...
