This book focuses on the metallogeny and main tectonic
events of the North China Craton from early Precambrian to Phanerozoic. It
covers the Archean crustal growth, Paleoproterozoic
rifting-subduction-collision processes, Great Oxidation Event,
Meso-Neoproterozoic multiple rifting, Phanerozoic reworking of the North China
Craton, as well as metallogeny related to above different processes. The North
China Craton is one of the oldest cratons in the world. It has experienced a
complex geological evolution since the early Precambrian, and carries important
records of secular changes in tectonics and metallogeny. It provides a
systematic review and new results on the growth and evolution of the North
China Craton and metallogeny. It will be of broad interest to the earth
scientists working in the fields of
economic geology, geochemistry, and tectonics of the North China Craton and
eastern Asian.

Mingguo Zhai is a Research Professor at the Institute of
Geology and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences; a Professor at Northwest
University (China); a Guest Professor at the University of Chinese Academy of
Sciences and Jilin University, and a Visiting chair professor at Sun Yat-Sen
University. He received his B.Sc. (1976) from Northwest
University (China),
and his M.Sc. (1982) and Ph.D. (1989) from the Chinese Academy
of Sciences. He was elected member of the Chinese Academy
of Sciences (Academician) in 2009. His professional fields cover Precambrian
geology, metamorphic geology and petrology. His research focus is on early
crustal evolution, continental geodynamics and metallogeny.

Yue Zhao is a Research Professor and Vice-Director of the Institute
of Geomechanics, Chinese
Academy of Geological Sciences, Beijing. He earned a
bachelor's degree in geology from Changchun College of Geology in 1982 and a MS
degree in structural geology and tectonics from the Chinese Academy
of Geological Sciences in 1986. His research interests include structural and
tectonic evolution of East Asian and the East Antractica.
He firstly propopsed that the Jurassic deformations in northern North China
Craton is related to geotectonics transition from Paleoasian system and
Paleotethyan system to Paleopacific active continental margin of eastern Asia. He is also the first one explained the meaning of
the Pan-African events in Prydz Bay, East Antarctica and its inference on East
Gondwana tectonics.

Taiping Zhao is a Research Professor at the Guangzhou
Institute of Geochemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences. His research
interests include magmatism and related ore-forming processes. He has been
focused on the study of the igneous rocks and related ore deposits in North
China Craton and East Qinling-Dabie orogenic belt in the last two decades. His
current researches mainly consist of two aspects, major Precambrian geological
events and related ore-forming processes on the southern margin of the North China craton, and the petrogenesis
and tectonic settings of the Mesozoic granitoids and metallogeny of the
associated Mo-Au-Ag-Pb-Zn ore-deposits on the southern margin of the North
China Craton.
