متن کاملMesozoic and Cenozoic tectonic evolution of the Shiquanhe area of western Tibet
[1] In the Shiquanhe area of far-western Tibet, midCretaceous strata lie unconformable on ophiolitic melange and Jurassic flysch associated with the Bangong-Nujiang suture zone. On the basis of our mapping and geochronologic studies, we suggest that these Cretaceous strata were shortened by >57% over a north south distance of 50 km during Late Cretaceousearly Tertiary time. The Late Cretaceous ...
