The Mesozoic tectonics in East China is characterized by significant lithospheric thinning of the North China Craton, large-scale strike-slip movement along the Tan-Lu fault, and regional magmatism with associated metallogeny. Here we address the possible connections between these three events through a systematic investigation of the geochemistry, zircon geochronology and whole rock oxygen isotopes of the Mesozoic magmatic rocks distributed along the Tan-Lu fault in the Shandong province.The characteristic spatial and temporal distributions of high-Mg adakitic rocks along the Tan-Lu fault with emplacement ages of 134-128 Ma suggest a strong structural control for the emplacement of these intrusions, with magma generation possibly associated with the subduction of the Pacific plate in the early Cretaceous. The low-Mg adakitic rocks (127–120 Ma) in the Su-Lu orogenic belt were formed later than the high-Mg adakitic rocks, whereas in the Dabie orogenic belt, most of the low-Mg adakitic rocks (143-129 Ma) were generated earlier than the high-Mg adakitic rocks. Based on available data, we suggest that the large scale strike-slip tectonics of the Tan-Lu fault in the Mesozoic initiated cratonic destruction at the south-eastern margin of the North China Craton, significantly affecting the lower continental crust within areas near the fault. This process resulted in crustal fragments sinking into the asthenosphere and reacting with peridotites, which increased the Mg# of the adakitic melts, generating the high-Mg adakitic rocks. The gravitationally unstable lower continental crust below the Tan-Lu fault in the Su-Lu orogenic belt triggered larger volume delamination of the lower continental crust or foundering of the root.
