Abstract:

Rodingite, coexisting with serpentinized harzburgite, was found in the Shaliuhe ophiolite sequence, North Qaidam UHPM belt. It is mainly composed of grossular, dioposide, chlorite, carbonate and minor prehnite, zoisite. Rodingite is a typical product of oceanfloor metamorphism. The Shaliuhe rodingite is the second evidence for the oceanic subduction in North Qaidam UHPM belt.

Key words:  rodingite, oceanic subduction, North Qaidam UHPM belt
