Abstract: The Indo-Burma Range (IBR) of Myanmar, the eastern extension of the Yarlung-Tsangpo Neotethyan belt of Tibet in China, contains mélanges with serpentinite, greenschist facies basalt, chert, sericite schist, silty slate and unmetamorphosed Triassic sandstone, mudstone… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The Indo-Burma Ranges form an enigmatic mountain belt, with fragments of evidence for an early accretionary history (Jurassic Jade belt HP-LT metamorphism; Early Cretaceous ophiolites; highly deformed Triassic turbidites (Pane Chaung Formation, PCF); Kanpetlet… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The absence of fine lithospheric-scale velocity models beneath Myanmar makes it difficult to understand the neotectonics and geodynamics along the Indo-Burma subduction zone. In this study, we present a high-resolution crustal and uppermost mantle… read more here.
