A refined Archean-Paleoproterozoic magmatic framework of the Cuoke Complex, SW China, and its implications for early Precambrian evolution of the Yangtze Block

•Major magmatic episodes in southwestern Yangtze at ca. 3.08, 2.85 and 2.36–2.32 Ga.•Northern and southwestern domains of the Yangtze show differences in crustal growth.•The two domains have independent evolutionary histories prior to mid-Paleoproterozoic.•The two domains share a common history during and after Nuna assembly.
