Abstract
We document the evolution of A-type granitoid magmatism during the Cryogenian tectonic transformation of the Yenisei Ridge from a postcollisional mode to the early stage of development of an active continental margin. We illustrate the A-type granitoid magmatism evolution in a model for the emplacement and cooling of the intrusions of the Strelka pluton, reflecting the final stage of magmatism during the formation of the postcollisional Glushikha complex (719-702 Ma). These processes took place at the same time as the formation of mantle, mantle-crustal and crustal rocks of the Tatarka complex (711-683 Ma), including the Yagodka pluton A-type granites (711-705 Ma) during the early stage of active continental margin development. During this period of tectonic transition, both convergent events involved the continuous formation of felsic intrusions corresponding to oxidized A-type granites.
