Abstract

The strontium isotopic study of the southern Sierra Nevada has identified Middle Jurassic plutons in the east and Cretaceous plutons in the west separated by a narrow northwest trending belt of Triassic plutons. Isotopic and chemical differences of the plutons are used to identify two distinct lithosphere types in the area.
