Summary
| Description |
English: From source: Plate reconstructions of the BT through time: (a)–(h) 95, 70, 55, 50, 45, 40, 30 and 20 Ma. The collision of India with Asia is inferred to have occurred at ∼50 Ma. At 40 Ma, the deformation front is located within Greater India with subduction of India below this frontal thrust. Major expected sediment depocentres are shown. Reconstructions done according to the reference frame based on data from Australia (see Fig. 11). Red dots are the locations of active magmatism in a ±2.5 Myr window from the database of Chapman and Kapp (2017). |
