A high-angle ductile thrusting deformation with top-to-the-north movement penetratively developed in the Proterozoic-Early Paleozoic metamorphic rocks along the Central East Kunlun belt. The deformed rocks suffered epidote-amphibolite facies metamorphism. On the basis of our previous study, we present more data in this paper to further support that the ducdle thrust deformation occurred in the later Caledonian and more detailed information about the deformation. A zircon U-Pb concordant age of 446±2.2 Ma of a deformed granodiorite in the ductile thrust zone was obtained and can be interpreted as the lower limit of the deformation. A syntectonically crystallized and also strongly deformed hornblende Ar/ Ar dating gives an Ar/Ar plateau age of 426.5±3.8 Ma, which represents the deformation age. A strongly orientated muscovite gives an Ar/Ar plateau age of 408±1.6Ma, representing the cooling age after the peak temperature, constraining the upper limit of the ductile thrust deformation.

The deformed rocks subjected epidote-amphibolite facies metamorphism. On the basis of our previous study , we present more data in this paper to further support that the ductile motion than in the later Caledonian and more detailed information about the deformation. A zircon U-Pb concordant age of 446 ± 2.2 Ma of a deformed granodiorite in the ductile thrust zone was obtained and the be interpreted as the lower limit of the deformation. A syntectonically crystallized and also over deformed hornblende Ar / Ar dating gives an Ar / Ar plateau age of 426.5 ± 3.8 Ma, which represents the deformation age. A strongly orientated muscovite gives an Ar / Ar plateau age of 408 ± 1.6Ma, representing the cooling age after the peak temperature, constraining the upper limit of the ductile thrust deformation.
