I want to know why the Burma Plate and the Indian Plate slipped

Extent

Several sources extend the Burma Plate (or Microplate or Platelet) as far as the Naga Thrust and the northern end of the Sagaing Fault, where they meet the Mishmi Thrust. The extent currently shown in this article doesn't even include any of Burma (Myanmar). In the larger model, the Sagaing Fault extends the full length of the microplate, which makes sense. Some sources: Meng et al. (2022), Najman et al. (2020), Gahalaut & Gahalaut (2007), Hurukawa et al. (2012), Rangin (2015). Mikenorton (talk) 20:52, 2 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
