A new tectonic model for the Itmurundy Zone, central Kazakhstan: linking ocean plate stratigraphy, timing of accretion and subduction polarity

The Itmurundy Zone of Central Kazakhstan is a key structure in the core of the Kazakh Orocline representing a typical Pacific-type orogenic belt hosting accretionary complex, ophiolite massifs and serpentinite mélange. The main controversies in the existing tectonic models of the Itmurundy Zone are...
