The Daqing River, Chaobai River and Liao River are characterized by two age peaks of 2.4~2.5 Ga and 1.8~1.9 Ga, which indicate contributions from the eastern North China craton. Some 100~500 Ma zircons from the Liao River with positive εHf(t) values and young Hf model ages, suggesting Phanerozoic crustal growth. In contrast, U-Pb ages of the Dagu River and Jiaolai River, which run through the Sulu orogen, are more complicated and characterized by age groups of 2.4~2.5 Ga, 1.8~1.9 Ga and 700~800 Ma, implying a mixed provenance of eastern North China craton and Yangtze craton. The Lu-Hf isotope compositions of the Daqing River, Chaobai River and Liao River demonstrate the dominant growth at 2.4-3.0 Ga, with a peak at 2.6~2.7 Ga and minor growth during 1.3~2.3 Ga.
