- W73104477 abstract "The Arabian Peninsula has an area of around 3,003,200 km2. Its boundaries to the west, southwest, and south are formed by tensional structures, the shear faults, and grabens of the Gulf of Aden, the Red Sea, and the Gulf of Aqaba—Dead Sea rifts. The boundaries to the north and northeast are defined by the compressional features associated with the Alpine Taurus, Zagros, and Oman Mountains. The consolidation of the Arabian Shield is an ancient polygonal mass of continental crust occupying some 770,000 km2, about one third of the Arabian Peninsula. It lies on the western side of the peninsula flanking the Red Sea with a relatively flat, slightly undulating surface that can be traced north, northwest, and west. It dips below the thick sedimentary cover of the eastern side of the peninsula and forms the basement of the Interior Homocline and Unstable Shelf. Outcrops of these Precambrian basement rocks have been described from southwest Yemen and a smaller outcrop also occurs in eastern Oman. The shield has remained as a stable mass persisting as a positive area throughout the Phanerozoic. It consists of gneiss, metasediments, and volcanic rocks intruded by granitic plutons, which were peneplaned during the Late Precambrian time. These plutonic intrusions represent 57 % of the rocks of the shield. During the Tertiary they were covered by extensive lava flows." @default.
