英文摘要	The exceptionally thick Middle Permian Zhesi Formation is considered key to understanding the late Palaeozoic tectonic setting of the North China-Mongolia segment of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt, yet its sedimentary environment and provenance remain ambiguous. An integrated approach incorporating detailed field observation and measurement, framework petrography, whole-rock geochemistry and detrital zircon U-Pb geochronology is applied here to investigate this problem. The framework petrography and whole-rock geochemical characteristics jointly suggest that the Zhesi Formation was derived primarily from felsic upper continental crust, with the source rocks undergoing intermediate weathering and short-distance transportation. Furthermore, the source rocks were composed of granites/granitoids that occurred in a transitional recycled orogen. LA-ICP-MS U-Pb detrital zircon data from sandstone samples show two main age groups of 480-410 and 290-265Ma. Accordingly, we deduce that the dominant provenance of the Zhesi Formation was northerly early to mid-Palaeozoic orogenic belt, late Palaeozoic granites/granitoids and volcanics, with a possible contribution from the Hunshandake Block. The subsiding depositional environment of this succession is in response to the Middle Permian extensional tectonic setting of the orogenic belt.
