摘要

The Arabian Sea in the NW Indian Ocean is a place where two major transform boundaries are currently active: the Owen Fracture Zone between India and Arabia and the Owen Transform between India and Somalia. These transform systems result from the fragmentation of the India-Africa Transform boundary, which initiated about 90 Myrs ago, when the India-Seychelles block separated from Madagascar to move towards Eurasia. Therefore, the geological record of the Arabian Sea makes it possible to investigate the sensitivity of a transform system to several major geodynamic changes.Here we focus on the evolution of the India-Africa transform system during the similar to 47-90 Ma interval. We identify the Late Cretaceous (similar to 90-65 Ma) transform plate boundary along Chain Ridge, in the North Somali Basin. From 65 to similar to 42-47 Ma, the India-Africa transform is identified at the Chain Fracture Zone, which crossed both the Owen Basin and the North East Oman margin. Finally, the transform system jumped to its present-day location in the vicinity of the Owen Ridge. These shifts of the India-Africa boundary with time provide a consistent paleogeographic framework for the emplacement of the Masirah Ophiolitic Belt, which constitutes a case of ophiolite emplaced along a transform boundary. The successive locations of the India-Africa boundary further highlight the origin of the Owen Basin lithosphere incoming into the Makran subduction zone.
