The model of extrusion tectonics for the accommodation of the Indo\|Asian collis i on requires the presence of large\|scale strike\|slip faults with hundreds of ki lo meters of displacement. Along the western edge of the Tibetan Plateau, the Kara koram fault, extending ~900[KG*9]km from the central Pamir to western Tibet, ha s been proposed as one of these accommodating faults. At the northern terminus of the Karakoram fault lies the west\|southwest dipping Kongur Shan detachment f ault system. As the two systems have been proposed to be kinematically linked, constraining the amount of slip along the Kongur Shan detachment system helps d etermine the total displacement along the Karakoram fault system. This in turn will co nstrain the applicability of extrusion tectonics models for the Indo\|Asian coll ision. [KH*2] Detailed geologic mapping was conducted in the northern Kongur Shan region along the Gezi River and near the village of Qiake lake. Kinematic indicators f rom rocks directly below the fault, such as rotated crystals, asymmetric boundar y, and S\|C fabrics, show a normal sense of shear. The detachment fault in th e area dips between 35° to 45° to the east. A thin zone of chloritic breccias, a few meters thick, is locally exposed directly below the fault. Mylonitic gneisse s >2[KG*9]km thick are present in the footwall. The strike of mylonitic foliat ions c hanges systematically and, together with the domal geometry of a deformed grani tic body, define a gneiss dome in the footwall. Associated with the variation i n the strike of foliation is a systematic change in the trend of the mylonitic l ineation. Their trend is to the west directly below the fault, but changes to the northwest farther away from the fault. Rocks in the footwall of the detachm ent fault are composed of biotite and muscovite schists (quartz, plagioclase, bi otite, muscovite, +/-garnet, +/-epidote), and deformed granitite sills and sh ee t\|like bodies. Preliminary petrologic studies indicate that these rocks have ex perienced upper greenschist to lower amphibolite facies metamorphism. 展开更多
