a collected detrital zircon U-Pb ages of regional sediments (corresponding to data in Table S7), b compiled zircon U-Pb ages of regional intermediate rocks (corresponding to data in Table S6). c Hf isotope contour map after ref. 110, based on Paleozoic granitoid rocks and felsic volcanic rocks among the STOB, showing the spatial variation of the ancient crustal basement (fragmented craton or micro-continent) with relative old Hf model ages.
