Cenozoic deformation in western Yunnan (China–Myanmar border)
A Socquet, M Pubellier - Journal of Asian Earth Sciences, 2005 - Elsevier
In the present paper, we describe ductile and brittle deformation styles in western Yunnan
and NE Myanmar, using field data and Landsat 7 imagery. We show that this complex area
located at the northern termination of Sunda Plate (Three Rivers area) was wedged during
the Tertiary between the left-lateral Ailao Shan/Chong Shan metamorphic belts to the east
and the right-lateral Shan scarp/Gaoligong metamorphic belt in west. This triangular region
therefore underwent the effects of these continental size ductile strike-slip faults separating …
