... (or Bartanga) nappe composed of Mesozoic (starting from the Upper Triassic) and Oligocene-Miocene deposits [ 4 , 5 ]. They are followed by disharmonically contorted allochthonous masses layered into three nappes – Muzkol, North Pamirs, and Kalaktash ones. Depending on the locality of occurrence, the latter...
