The Qinling Orogenic Belt marks the link between the South China and North China Blocks and is an important region to understand the geological evolution of the Chinese mainland as well as the Asian tectonic collage. However, the tectonic affinity and geodynamic evolution of the South Qinling Tectonic Belt (SQTB), a main unit of the Qinling Orogenic Belt, remains debated. Here we present detailed geological, geochemical and zircon U-Pb-Hf isotopic studies on the Zhangjiaba, Xinyuan, Jiangjiaping, Guangtoushan and Huoshaodian plutons from the Guangtoushan granitoid suite (GGS) in the western segment of the SQTB. Combining geology, geochronology and whole-rock geochemistry, we identify four distinct episodes of magmatism as: (1) similar to 230-228 Ma quartz diorites and granodiorites, (2) similar to 224 Ma fine-grained granodiorites and monzogranites, (3) similar to 218 Ma porphyritic monzogranites and (4) similar to 215 Ma high-Mg# quartz diorites and granodiorites as well as coeval muscovite monzogranites. The similar to 230-228 Ma quartz diorites and granodiorites were generated by magma mixing between a mafic melt from mantle source and a granodioritic melt derived from partial melting of Neoproterozoic rocks in the lower continental crust related to a continental arc regime. The similar to 224 Ma fine-grained granodiorites and monzogranites were formed through partial melting of a transitional source with interlayers of basaltic rocks and greywackes in the deep zones of the continental arc. The similar to 218 Ma porphyritic monzogranites originated from partial melting of metamorphosed greywackes in lower crustal levels, suggesting underthrusting of middle or upper crustal materials into lower crustal depths. The similar to 215 Ma high-Mg# quartz diorites and granodiorites (with Mg# values higher than 60) were derived from an enriched mantle altered by sediment-derived melts. Injection of hot mantle-derived magmas led to the emergence of the similar to 215 Ma S-type granites at the final stage. Integrating our studies with previous data, we propose that the Mianlue oceanic crust was still subducting beneath the SQTB during similar to 248-224 Ma, and final closure of the Mianlue oceanic basin occurred between similar to 223 Ma and similar to 218 Ma. After continental collision between the South China Block and the SQTB, slab bre
