The Golconda Thrust is a major oceanic terrane that was thrust over central and northern Nevada, North America, in possibly sometime between the Late Permian and the late Jurassic. [1] It is considered equivalent to the Tobin thrust fault. [2]
It contains the Havallah sequence. [3]
The time of the Golconda Thrust is not perfectly clear, and it may pre-date the Sonoma orogeny. [4] Other references suspect it appears to have thrust during the Sonoma orogeny. [5]
