Datasets for the article "Detrital zircon constraints on tectonic evolution of the Liaodong Paleoproterozoic orogenic belt, North China Craton"

These data contain our geochronological and genchemical experimental data and collected published geochronological data where references are already listed to reveal that the Liaohe group and coeval intrusions were generated in the setting of back-arc basin and tectonic evolution of the Liaodong Paleoproterozoic orogenic belt can be subdivided into four stages, i. e. early back-arc extension stage (2200-2080 Ma), transitional stage (2080-1940 Ma), main orogenic deformation (1940-1840 Ma) and post-orogenic plutonic emplacement (< 1840 Ma).
