As a hot topic in Earth sciences, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has accumulated a large amount of sedimentary-related data. We constructed a dataset of detrital components for Qinghai-Tibet Plateau from 63 peer-reviewed publications. The dataset thus comprises 1813 Late Proterozoic to Pleistocene sandstones from 84 stratigraphic units. For each sample, we present details on reference, detrital composition, GPS, geographic location, depositional age, tectonic setting and depositional environment. It becomes a high-quality dataset after the information on each sandstone sample was standardized and reviewed by sedimentary experts. The dataset can be used for regional geoscience studies, exploring the general laws of the source-to-sink process. The dataset may also be useful in the field of utilities, such as assisting in finding suitable building stones, helping oil and gas and mineral exploration, and so forth.

青藏高原砂岩碎屑成分数据集

青藏高原作为地球科学的热点，积累了大量的沉积相关数据。我们根据 63 份同行评审出版物构建了青藏高原碎屑成分数据集。因此，该数据集包含来自 84 个地层单元的 1813 个晚元古代至更新世砂岩。对于每个样本，我们提供有关参考、碎屑成分、GPS、地理位置、沉积年龄、构造背景和沉积环境的详细信息。每个砂岩样本的信息经过标准化并经过沉积专家审核后，成为高质量的数据集。该数据集可用于区域地球科学研究，探索源-汇过程的一般规律。该数据集在公用事业领域也可能有用，例如协助寻找合适的建筑石材、帮助石油和天然气以及矿物勘探等。
