Description
The Dras island are (NW India) is intruded by the Ladakh Batholith and rimmed along its southern margin by the Indus suture zone, which developed ca. 50 Ma at the start of the India-Asia collision. Along its northern margin the Ladakh Batholith intrudes the Shyok Formation, a series of folded and faulted metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks that are thought to mark an older suture of Cretaceous age.
