摘要 | The Pearl River drains the South China Block and delivers large amounts of sediments to the northern South China Sea, and its development can be closely linked to the regional paleoenvironmental changes. However, the evolutionary history of the Pearl River has been poorly understood, mainly because of the lack of continuous and high-resolution sedimentary records over a long geological time. In this study, we present multiple new analytical results, including clay mineral assemblages and Sr-Nd isotopic compositions of the <2 mu m siliciclastic sediments, from the latest deep sea drilling core in the northern South China Sea from International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Site U1501. We aim to reconstruct the evolutionary history of the Pearl River by tracing changes in clay mineral assemblages and Sr-Nd isotopic compositions. Provenance analysis indicates that the sediment source experienced a significant change between 32 and 30 Ma. Specifically, sediments prior to 32 Ma were derived from the southeastern Cathaysia coast, whereas sediments post to 30 Ma were mainly supplied by a proto-Pearl River. This provenance transition indicates that the modern-scale Pearl River has fully developed at least -30 Ma and began to contribute sediments to the northern South China Sea. We additionally compared the timings of major climatic and tectonic events in this region, and suggest that the topographic uplift of the SE Tibetan Plateau most likely drove the large-scale westward expansion of rivers drainage from the coast located in the Cathaysia Block to the interior of Yangtze Block. As a result of this fluvial drainage evolution followed by the development of Pearl River, geochemical and clay mineralogical characteristics of the deposits in the northern South China Sea correspondingly changed.(c) 2022 Elsevier B.V.
