Karakoram fault system : ウィキペディア英語版
Karakoram fault system

The Karakoram fault is an oblique-slip fault system in the Himalaya region across India and Asia. The slip along the fault accommodates radial expansion of the Himalayan arc, northward indentation of the Pamir Mountains, and eastward lateral extrusion of the Tibetan plateau.〔 Current plate motions suggest that the convergence between the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate are around 44±5 mm per year in the western Himalaya-Pamir region and approximately 50±2 mm per year in the eastern Himalayan region.
==Origin==
The creation of the Karakoram fault started with the closing of the ancient Tethys ocean seaway which once separated the two modern continents of Asia and India. The Karakoram fault itself does not trace a plate boundary, except for where it possibly ends in the Indus-Yalu Suture Zone. The original thrusting occurred by linking existing thrust faults in what is now the Pamir Mountains starting between 17-20 millions years ago.
