“…The GHS records a cryptic phase of early Palaeozoic metamorphism that is rarely preserved in the hinterland and is better documented in the foreland klippen (e.g., Argles et al., ; Cawood et al., ; DeCelles et al., ; Gehrels et al., , 2006a; Godin et al., ). During the Himalayan orogeny, the GHS was metamorphosed at greenschist to granulite facies conditions and was extensively deformed from the Eocene to the Miocene (Carosi et al., ; Godin et al., ; Grujic, Hollister, & Parrish, ; Grujic, Warren, & Wooden, ; Iaccarino, Montomoli, Carosi, Massone, et al., ; Iaccarino et al., ; Inger & Harris, ; Larson & Cottle, ; Larson et al., ; Pêcher, ; Soucy La Roche, Godin, Cottle, et al., ; Streule, Searle, Waters, & Horstwood, ; Vannay & Hodges, ). The base of the GHS is marked by the Main Central thrust (MCT) zone, a several km‐thick top‐to‐the‐SW shear zone that propagated down‐section from the early Oligocene to the late Miocene as slices of footwall rocks were successively accreted to the hangingwall (Gansser, ; Hunter, Weinberg, Wilson, Luzin, & Misra, ; Larson, Ambrose, Webb, Cottle, & Shrestha, ; Martin, 2017b; Mottram et al., ; Searle et al., ).…”
