The concepts of his Olivine study are interwoven with issues in Primitive mantle, Diorite and Mafic.
His most cited work include:
- The association of mafic–ultramafic intrusions and A-type magmatism in the Tian Shan and Altay orogens, NW China: Implications for geodynamic evolution and potential for the discovery of new ore deposits (263 citations)
- Geochemistry of Picritic and Associated Basalt Flows of the Western Emeishan Flood Basalt Province, China (232 citations)
- Permo-Triassic granitoids in the northern part of the Truong Son belt, NW Vietnam: Geochronology, geochemistry and tectonic implications (120 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Zircon, Large igneous province, Partial melting and Petrogenesis.
His study in Geochemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Mantle plume and Craton.
His Zircon research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Igneous rock, Igneous differentiation, Crust, Pluton and Terrane.
The Large igneous province study combines topics in areas such as Carbonatite, Layered intrusion, Magma and Ultramafic rock.
His studies in Partial melting integrate themes in fields like Fractional crystallization, Peridotite, Petrology and Phenocryst.
Within one scientific family, Zhaochong Zhang focuses on topics pertaining to Trace element under Petrogenesis, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Lithophile.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geochemistry (93.43%)
- Zircon (29.93%)
- Large igneous province (22.63%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geochemistry, Large igneous province, Petrogenesis, Igneous rock and Mineralization.
Zhaochong Zhang performs integrative Geochemistry and Permian research in his work.
His research on Large igneous province also deals with topics like
- Volcano and related Basalt and Subaerial,
- Geochronology that intertwine with fields like Isotopes of oxygen and Volcanic rock,
- Amphibole, which have a strong connection to Plagioclase, Chromite, Xenolith and Ultramafic rock.
Zhaochong Zhang has included themes like Phlogopite and Olivine in his Petrogenesis study.
His Igneous rock study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Magnetite and Earth science.
Zhaochong Zhang works mostly in the field of Mineralization, limiting it down to topics relating to Crust and, in certain cases, Magma chamber, Metasomatism and Apatite, as a part of the same area of interest.

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Igneous rock
- Basalt
- Quartz
Zhaochong Zhang mainly focuses on Geochemistry, Large igneous province, Mantle plume, Kinetics and Ti oxides.
His studies deal with areas such as Fluid inclusions and Molybdenite as well as Geochemistry.
Zhaochong Zhang interconnects Subduction, Geochronology, Carbonatite, Isotopes of oxygen and Zircon in the investigation of issues within Large igneous province.
The various areas that Zhaochong Zhang examines in his Mantle plume study include Earth science and Igneous rock.
