“…In the Thakkhola graben, paleotemperature estimates are very low: 70°C in Cretaceous to 290°C in Carboniferous strata. For the Manang area and the Marsyandi valley, paleotemperatures of 250-360°C in Upper Triassic and Jurassic, 270-370°C in Permo-Carboniferous and 335-530°C in Cambrian to Devonian are reported (Garzanti et al, 1994;Schneider and Masch, 1993). The highest metamorphic temperatures occurred at the deepest structural levels together with the highest intensity of deformation in the Cambrian-Ordovician limestones (Colchen et al, 1986;Schneider and Masch, 1993;Garzanti et al, 1994).…”
