Quantifying magma water contents constrain a new entrainment model for charnockite formation

This database contains the zircon Hf-O isotopic data, SIMS water content, Raman results, major minerals chemical compositions, bulk-rock major and trace compositions, from the Gaozhou charnockite-granite association in Yunkai terrane, South China, along with compilations including the ages of early Paleozoic granitoids and metamorphic rocks in the Yunkai terrane, and peak P-T conditions of high-grade metamorphic rocks in the Wuyi-Yunkai orogen.
