The Altai-Sayan Fold Belt epitomises how Phanerozoic island-arc continental crust contributed to the growth of the Palaeo-Eurasian continent. Its formation is dominated by the closure of the Palaeo-Asian Ocean (PAO) when island-arc systems and Gondwana-derived terranes accreted to the Siberian margin. Relics of the PAO related tectonic units and associated granitoids occur along the ophiolitic Charysh–Terekta–Ulagan–Sayan suture (CTUSs) between Gorny-Altai and Altai-Mongolia. Zircon LA-ICP-MS U/Pb dating of this igneous record constrains the multi-stage geodynamic PAO evolution. Primitive Kuznetsk-Altai island-arc crust formed at the Siberian margin during the Ediacaran–Early Cambrian (525–555Ma). This island-arc matured during the Middle–Late Cambrian (~510Ma) and was consumed by PAO subduction in the Late Cambrian–Early Ordovician (480–490Ma) forming the Siberian Early Caledonian accretion–collision belt. South of the CTUSs, granitic magmatism occurred within Gondwana-derived Altai-Mongolia during the Middle–Late Ordovician (450–470Ma) Palaeo-Kazakhstan assembly and during a Silurian–Early Devonian (400–425Ma) Andean-type collision. Middle–Late Devonian (360–395Ma) granitoids were emplaced as a result of the collision of Altai-Mongolia with Siberia. During final Pangaea amalgamation, the suture was strike-slip reactivated (associated magmatism ~295Ma). The youngest (220–255Ma) sampled granitoids originated in an intra-plate setting.
