FORMATION OF THE CRUSTAL MELTING LAYER AND ITS RELATIONS TO THE DEFORMATION OF CONTINENTAL CRUST: AN EXAMPLE FROM SOUTHEAST CHINA

作者：CHEN Guo-neng

摘要：Unlike the magma intrusion model, the in-situ melting hypothesis advanced in the last decade regards the upper crust as a closed system, and granite as the result of the materials within system changing from order (protolith) to disorder (melts) and to new order(granite) with the variations of entropy of the system. The various geological and geochemical data from the Mesozoic granites of southeast China are explained logically and systemically by the hypothesis, concluding that they should be originated from the melting of protoliths.
