Geochronology and Tectonic Evolution of the Lincang Batholith in Southwestern Yunnan, China

Figure 2

Regional map of Indian Period and research locality in western Yunnan. The distribution of metal deposits also indicates that there is an important boundary along the Lincang Granite Batholith. Stereographic maps of lower hemisphere projection indicating the initial occurrence of Lincang granite Batholith are also plotted in the regional map. L, S, Q refer to joints parallel to the initial foliation, parallel to the flow direction but upright to the initial foliation, upright to both the flow direction and initial foliation. Orientation of shear fractures can be generated by local stress system of the Batholith with emplacements [24].
