Apatite fission track and (U-Th)/He ages from the Higher Himalayan Crystallines, Kaghan Valley, Pakistan: Implications for an Eocene Plateau and Oligocene to Pliocene exhumation

► Low temperature thermochronology from HP and UHP rocks of the Kaghan Valley, Pakistan. ► Oligocene to Middle Miocene ages for the northern part of the Valley. ► Late Miocene to Pliocene ages for the southernmost Kaghan Valley. ► Discussion about an extended early Plateau in the north, comparable to Deosai. ► Discussion about Miocene activity of the MBT in the south, and enhanced erosion.
