Abstract
⺠The Gobi Corridor region north of Tibet represents the 'soft' core of Central Asia. ⺠Region is characterized by diffuse sinistral transpressional deformation. ⺠Basement is a terrane collage mechanically and thermally predisposed to crustal reactivation. ⺠Kinematics of Late CZ deformation dependent on angle between SHmax and older structural trends. ⺠The life cycle of orogenic belts may include an important later stage of intraplate reactivation.
