The Bureya Massif is an important massif in the eastern Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB), and contains voluminous late Palaeozoic–early Mesozoic granitoids that are ideal for investigating the tectonic evolution of the eastern CAOB. Here we report whole-rock geochemical, and zircon U–Pb geochronological and Lu–Hf isotope data for several granite intrusions in the northwestern Bureya Massif, with the aim of constraining the timing of magmatism and late Palaeozoic–early Mesozoic tectonism in the eastern CAOB. The zircon U–Pb dating results indicate that granitoids with ages of 306 ± 4, 243 ± 3, 191 ± 2, and 189 ± 4 Ma occur in the Bureya Massif. These, and previously published data, reveal that at least four stages of magmatism occurred in the northwestern part of the massif: ~306 Ma, ~243 Ma, 219–212 Ma, and ~201-189 Ma. The late Carboniferous (306 ± 4 Ma) gneissic monzogranites have an S and A-type granite affinity, and were derived with significant contribution of the mantle component in a syn- to post-collisional setting between the Bureya and Xing’an massifs. The Middle Triassic (243 ± 3 Ma) porphyritic I-type monzogranites, Early Jurassic (191 ± 2 Ma) porphyritic S-type syenogranites, and Early Jurassic (189 ± 4 Ma) gneissic S-type monzogranites have a supra-subduction zone geochemical signature. These granitoids formed in an active continental margin setting associated with southward subduction of the Mongol–Okhotsk oceanic plate.
