Switch from Thrusting to Normal Shearing in the Zanskar Shear Zone, NW Himalaya: Implications for Channel Flow
Original language description
The Zanskar Shear Zone (ZSZ) is a ductile, normal-sense shear zone that exploited the contact between the High Himalayan Crystalline series and the Tethyan Sedimentary Series. The ZSZ is an extension of the South Tibetan Detachment System and in Zanskaraccommodated 24 km of normal movement. Early thrusting is preserved in footwall and hanging wall and is overprinted by normal shearing. Thrusting and normal shearing were co-planar and co-directional, with SW-directed thrusting overprinted by NE-directednormal shearing: a simple inversion of movement sense. The telescoped isograds related to normal shearing define a broad pattern of colder rocks on top of hotter. However, we found preserved thrust-related metamorphic series, with hotter rocks on top ofcolder, severely telescoped by normal shearing. Some determinations of the amount of displacement and thinning on the ZSZ prior to the current work have assumed a steady-state crustal profile and have disregarded pre-existing perturbatio
