Late Paleozoic rock deformation of the Kurai block: structural‐kinematic analysis (upper Kuraika river, Gorny Altai, Russia)

In the Kurai ridge located in the southeastern Gorny Altai (Altai Mountains, Russia) metamorphic rocks of the Kurai complex are widely developed: granite‐gneisses, crystalline schists and amphibolites, including widespread Early Carboniferous mylonites and blastomylonites. Oriented samples of blasto...
