Zircon U-Pb Geochronology and Mineral Chemistry of Xinhe Mafic Rocks: Petrological Constraints on Water Heterogeneity in the Emeishan Large Igneous Province

The debate of hydrous and anhydrous mafic magmatism in the Emeishan large igneous province (ELIP) requires more robust petrological and mineralogical evidence. This paper reports zircon U–Pb ages, clinopyroxene and hornblende major element compositions, whole-rock geochemical and...
