The consistent inclination recorded in red beds and basalt lava flows show that no significant inclination shallowing. The Lhasa terrane was located at about 10.4 ± 4.9° N at a reference point: 29.9°N, 91.1°E during Late Cretaceous. Significant crustal shortening of 1040 ± 520 km may have occurred within Asia since the Late Cretaceous.
