THE HINDU KUSH SEISMIC ZONE AS A PARADIGM FOR THE CREATION OFULTRAHIGH-PRESSURE DIAMOND- AND COESITE-BEARING CONTINENTAL ROCKS (2001)
In this paper is presented a model, based on the geometry of the seismically active Hindu Kush continental subduction zone and its restoration, assuming present-day plate motions, which explains how surficial graphite-rich shales and carbonates deposited along the northwest Indian plate margin were dragged down to these depths, anchored by the eclogitized leading edge of the thinned Indian plate crust.
