Dataset for the Unraveling the Tectono-Thermal History of the Inthanon Zone: Insights into the Magmatic-Metamorphic Evolution and Sn-W Ore Formation

Description:

This repository contains the comprehensive supplementary dataset—comprising mineral chemistry, whole-rock geochemistry, and geochronological isotopes—compiled for a Doctoral Thesis investigating the Inthanon Zone of northern Thailand. The Inthanon Zone preserves a vital record of the tectonic and metallogenic evolution of Southeast Asia spanning approximately 200 million years. To reconstruct this complex geological history, this study utilizes an integrated approach combining U-Pb zircon and monazite geochronology with phase equilibria modelling. While zircon provides a precise timeline for major magmatic crystallization at ~210 Ma and ~80–65 Ma, internal zoning within monazite crystals reveals a continuous sequence of overlapping metamorphic and magmatic pulses persisting from ~200 Ma to ~20 Ma. Synthesizing these chronologies with thermodynamic modelling successfully decouples these events to reconstruct the region's tectono-thermal evolution.
