Obduction
Obduction is the overthrusting of continental crust by oceanic crust or mantle rocks at a convergent plate boundary, such as closing of an ocean or a mountain building episode. This process is uncommon because the denser oceanic lithosphere usually subducts underneath the less dense continental plate. Most obductions appear to have initiated at back-arc basins above the subduction zones during the closing of an ocean or an orogeny.
