The involvement of evaporites as décollement surfaces in compressional tectonic regimes is a widespread phenomenon on Earth. The evaporites, mainly salt but also gypsum, function as mobile ductile surfaces along which thrust faults can move. Global examples of halokinesis in compressional inverted tectonic regimes include the south Viking Graben, and Central Graben in the North Sea, offshore Tunisia, the Zagros mountains of Iraq and Iran, northern Carpathians in Poland, western, and eastern Colombian, along the Eastern Frontal Fault System of the Eastern Ranges of the Andes, the Al Hajar Mountains of Oman, Dnieper-Donets Basin in the Ukraine, the Sivas Basin in Turkey, the Kohat-Potwar fold and thrust belt of Pakistan, the Flinders Ranges in South Australia, during the Eurekan orogeny in the Sverdrup Basin of northeastern Canada and western Greenland, and many more.
