The petrogenesis of the Permian large vast of magmatic rocks in the Alxa is helpful for us to understand the tectonic evolution of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB). The Permian volcanic rocks in the Shalazhashan belt (SLB), including basalts, trachyandesites and trachydacites, are carried out for whole-rock major-trace elements and Sr–Nd–Pb isotopic analyses. Two basalt samples show negative ɛNd(t) values (–5.4 to –1.5) and higher radiogenic Pb values, which are linked with the ancient subcontinental lithosphere mantle (SCLM). One basalt sample has positive ɛNd(t) value (+10) and is derived from mafic juvenile sources. The trachyandesites are dated at 284±3 Ma with ɛNd(t)= +2.7 to +8.0; ISr=0.7052 to 0.7057, and they are generated by different degrees of mixing between mafic magmas and crustal melts. The trachydacites have high ɛNd(t) values and slightly higher ISr contents, suggesting derivation from juvenile materials with crustal contamination. The comparisons with the Permian magmatic rocks in the Nuru-Langshan belt (NLB, representing the northern margin of the Alax block), the Mandula (representing the Solonker tectonic zone, STZ) and the Bayan Obo (representing the northern margin of the NCC), indicate that the radiogenic isotopic compositions from the Permian magmatic rocks have an increasingly evolved trend from the south (the Bayan Obo and the NLB) to the north (the SLB and the Mandula). Three end-member components are involved to generate the Permian magmatic rocks: the enriched SCLM, the mafic juvenile crust or newly underplated mafic rocks, and the crust. The rocks derived from the juvenile crust or newly underplated mafic rocks are predominantly distributed along the SLB and the Mandula area (the STZ), and the rocks derived from ancient, enriched SCLM are mainly along the northern margin of the NCC and the NLB. The magmatic rock types, temporal and spacial distributions argue against them originated from mantle plume related magmatism.
