We selected here sandstone suites directly occurring over the Mesomediterranean Micropaleoplate during the final stages of closure of the western-southern Tethyan realm. They are unconformably over the internal domains of the Circum-Mediterranean thrust belts, and include Oligocene-to-lower Miocene siliciclastic formations of the Betic Cordillera (As, Bosque, Río Pliego, El Niño, Ciudad Granada, Fuente-Espejos, Alozaina and Viñuela fms), Rif Chain (Fnideq and Sidi Abdeslam fms), and Calabrian terranes (Paludi, Pignolo and Stilo Capo d'Orlando fms). All these sandstone suites range from quartzolitic to quartzofeldspathic detrital modes reflecting close relations with their Paleozoic metasedimentary and plutonic source rocks and their related Mesozoic sedimentary covers. Marked differences have been recognized from western (Betic-Rif) to eastern (Calabria) portions in terms of detritic suites. Detrital suites of the Betic-Rif portions reflect a transition between a craton, transitional and recycled orogenic provenance type. Contrarily, detrital suites of the Calabria portions reflect their transition from transitional continental to basement uplift orogenic provenance reflecting deposition in wedge-top basins during final subduction of the MFB below the MM and the opening of the Mediterranean basin as a backarc.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":37149,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X","volume":"8 ","pages":"Article 100124"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590056022000457/pdfft?md5=047b1d65f734f7ef039ef98751613a7e&pid=1-s2.0-S2590056022000457-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43477180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The spectral analysis of microearthquakes data (1.9 &lt; M_L &lt; 4.3) recorded during 2009–2012 by 10 seismological stations of the LKZ reveals that the region produces low-stress drop earthquakes.

The earthquake cluster near the Tso-Morari Crystallines is associated with the brittle shear failure on the faults (e.g. Zildat, and Karzok Faults), and the low-stress drop of the earthquakes are explained by the partial stress drop model. The low effective fault strength due to fault weakening mechanisms in the studied segment of the Karakoram Fault zone promotes aseismic creeping patches producing low-stress drop earthquakes at the expense of generating large earthquakes.
