The tectonic evolution of the Kohistan‐Karakoram collision belt along the Karakoram Highway transect, north Pakistan

TL;DR: The Kohistan arc terrane comprises an intra-oceanic island arc of Cretaceous age separating the Indian plate to the south from the Karakoram (Asian) plate within the Indus suture zone of north Pakistan.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crustal reworking at Nanga Parbat, Pakistan: Metamorphic consequences of thermal-mechanical coupling facilitated by erosion

TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a model in which this intense metamorphic and structural reworking of crustal lithosphere is a consequence of strain focusing caused by significant erosion within deep gorges cut by the Indus and Tsangpo.
Journal ArticleDOI

A re-evaluation of the stratigraphy and evolution of the Kohistan arc sequence, Pakistan Himalaya: implications for magmatic and tectonic arc-building processes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used field mapping and structural data, combined with published geochemical data, from the Kohistan arc in the NW Himalaya to enable a re-evaluation of the arc stratigraphy.
