Scientific paper

Polar wander paths for the North and South China blocks suggest that (1) both were parts of Gondwana in the Palaeozoic, (2) the North China block accreted to Siberia in the late Permian and (3) the South China block accreted to the North China block in the middle Triassic to the early Jurassic. Comparison of the polar wander path for the South China block with that for northern Eurasia suggests that relative motion of over 4,000 km has occurred between them.
