Figure 2. Schematic geological profile across the South Tien Shan along the meridian
of 68o30
(profile 1 in Figure 1): (1) the Low-Middle Paleozoic rocks, undifferentiated;
(2) the Ordovician-Lower Silurian rocks, partially metamorphozed to green schists (Yagnob Schist);
(3) the Devonian-Middle Carboniferous carbonate and siliceous-carbonate sediments;
(4) the Lower-Middle Carboniferous volcanic rocks; (5) the Late Paleozoic, mostly flysch and molasse deposits;
(6) the Mz-Kz platform-type terrigenous-carbonate and coarse-clastic molasse deposits;
(7) granitoids of the Gissar batholith and of the axial zone of the Turkestan Ridge;
(8) Permian acid volcanic rocks; (9) faults; (10) lithologic
boundary; (11) names of the lithostructural zones: (AT) Afgan-Tajik,
(SG) South-Gissar (including the Osmantala Zone), (CG) Central-Gissar,
(KZ) Karakul-Zidda, (ZG) Zeravshan-Gissar (Yagnob), (ZT) Zeravshan-Turkestan,
