Structural geometry, style and timing of deformation in the Hawasina window, Al Jabal al Akhdar and Saih Hatat culminations, Oman mountains

Abstract:

The Al Jabal al Akhdar and Saih Hatat culminations in the central Oman Mountains expose the complete mid-Permian to Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian) passive shelf and margin carbonate sequence beneath the allochtonous slope (Sumeini Group), basin (Hawasina complex), distal ocean-trench (Haybi complex) facies rocks, and the Semail ophiolite thrust sheets that were emplaced from NE to SW during the Late Cretaceous. Reconstruction of the pre-thrust sequences shows that time-equivalent rocks occur in...
