Eurasian Fold & Thrust belts

Superlative tectonics in a superlative supercontinent
Picture

When continental margins and volcanic chains are recycled into mountain belts

From the Balkans to the Altai, from the Zagros to the Tien Shan, the fold and thrust belts of Eurasia and their associated forelands, have long seen the recycling of Palaeozoic and Mesozoic continental margins and volcanic island chains into Cenozoic mountain belts.  These are areas where all the ingredients for extensive mineralisation occur, but resolution of the subsurface is difficult.  This means we have to bring the full suite of structural understanding and non-seismic exploration techniques to bear on the problem, as well as the best seismic and geochemistry we can achieve. 

While these areas are commercially challenging, they are surrounded by some of the world's fastest growing and most populous economies.   PAETORO is undertaking regional review work and examining innovative exploration techniques of relevance, to help engage with that rising resurgence.
