Geodynamics of Pakistan"Geodynamics is dominated by plate tectonic models. Plate tectonics promises to provide explanation of global geodynamics including the origin of earthquakes, volcanoes and mountain building... This volume provide a comprehensive view of the geodynamic framework in which the evolution took place..." Preface. |

Until the Late Senonian, east-west structures dominated the sedimentation, but
then northsouth directions became more important; in the most recent tectonic
phase, which began in the Oligocene, the Southwest Ghissar uplift became ...

The Bela Ophiolites were apparently emplaced in the Paleocene (Alleman, this
volume), comparable to the age of the emplacement of the Iranian ophiolites east
and north of Neyriz (“inner sub-belt of the axial ophiolite belt”, Stöcklin, 1977).

Although the shipborne survey did not extend east of 63° East, it is probable that
similar structures are found offshore along the entire Makran coast. Further
details of some of the material covered are given by White and Klitgord (1976),
