Abstract
Sm-Nd isotopic compositions of associated amphibolites, TTG gneisses a nd granitic gneisses from the Archean Kongling Complex of the Yangtze Craton, South China are systematically analyzed. The results show that the amphibolites and TTG gneisses have a similar age of ca. 2 700 Ma, which well agrees with zircon U-Pb dating of previous studies. Howeve r, their epsilon(Nd)(t) are different, suggestive of possible dissimil arity in source composition.
