Figure 1. The schematic map of the main South Tien Shan structural elements:
(1) the Mz-Kz sediments around the Tien Shan Mountains;
(2) the Northern Tien Shan; (3) the Middle Tien Shan; (4-9) the Southern
Tien Shan: (4) the outcropping rocks of the intrabasin volcanic
(parautochthonous) ridges; (5) the outcropping allochthonous rocks of
the intrabasin volcanic ridges; (6) the outcropping rocks of the relatively
deep-sea troughs, volcanic high slopes, and shallow-sea bar slopes;
(7) the outcrops of microcontinent sediments; (8) major collision sutures,
listed in the northern direction: Karakul-Zidda, Zeravshan, Nuratau-Kurganak;
(9) South Tien Shan structural features, undifferentiated;
(10) Tarim, Suluterek, and South Gissar massifs; (11) Pamir structural
features; (12) South Fergana ophiolite suture (Paleo-Turkestan ocean suture);
