Late Miocene northward propagation of the northeast Pamir thrust system, northwest China
Piggyback basins on the margins of growing orogens commonly serve as sensitive recorders of the onset of thrust deformation and changes in source areas. The Bieertuokuoyi piggyback basin, located in the hanging wall of the Pamir Frontal Thrust, provides an unambiguous record of the outward growth of the northeast Pamir margin in northwest China from the Miocene through the Quaternary. To recons...
متن کاملTwo phases of Mesozoic north-south extension in the eastern Altyn Tagh range, northern Tibetan Plateau
[1] The >300-km long, east striking Lapeiquan fault lies in the eastern Altyn Tagh range along the northern margin of the Tibetan Plateau and was interpreted as a north dipping thrust in early studies. However, our mapping shows that the fault is a south dipping normal fault juxtaposing Archean-Proterozoic gneisses beneath an early Paleozoic volcanic and sedimentary sequence. Its dip angle vari...
متن کاملExtensional tectonics in the Caledonides of southern Norway, an overview
The extensional collapse of the Scandinavian Caledonides resulted in rapid tectonic denudation of the orogen, exhumation of highand ultra-high-pressure metamorphic rocks and provided a structural template for the formation of Devonian supra-detachment sedimentary basins. The geometry and intensity of the extensional deformation show considerable variation vertically in the crustal section as we...
متن کاملAnalysis of fold and fault-related fracture systems development using image logs at Asmari Formation in the Rag Sefid Anticline, SW Iran
Image logs of 13 wells in the Rag Sefid Anticline show two systems of fractures developed under two deformation phase in the Dezful Embayment. This deformation phases are folding resulted from Zagros NE contraction and reactivation of the basement fault rotated the fold axial trace within the Hendijan-Izeh fault zone. Folding phase comprises four sets of fractures, which include axial and cross...
متن کاملدگرریختی همزمان و پس از تبلور گرانیتوئید زهری بر پایه‌ی شواهد بافتی در پایانه‌های پهنه‌ی برشی نهبندان، خاور ایران
The Zahri granitoid body has intruded into the Late Cretaceous ophiolitic rocks syn-tectonically. This granitoid with NW–SE general trend was emplaced along the terminations of Nehbandan shear system in the northern Sistan suture zone during the Early Eocene. Development of magmatic to low temperature solid-state fabrics have shown the progressive deformation with decreasing melt content during...
