The North China Craton (NCC) preserves ancient rocks dating back to ca. 3.8 Ga, and has witnessed multiple magmatic-metamorphic events during the Archean-Proterozoic era. This critical period may have marked the transformation of the geodynamic regime on early Earth. As a result, the NCC serves as an ideal natural laboratory for deciphering the growth and evolution of continental crust, the onset of plate tectonics, and the architecture of the Archean geodynamic regime. To better understand the geological evolution of the NCC during the Precambrian, we collected 11 contributions for this Special Issue.
