The Strait of Hormuz separates two forms of plate collision.

Iberia, another separate terrain unit, has been rotated and emplaced against the rest of Europe by the plate collision.

Uplifting forces from the plate collision pushed this rock above the surface of the ocean to where we see it today.

This plate collision, still in progress, began 100 millions years ago.

This is evidence a period of tectonic plate collision between 330 and 300 million years ago, which exerted pressure on the rock.

By the Late Permian, much of the continental plate collision had subsided; the mountain building however, still continued.

It formed somewhere from middle to late Pleistocene, and indicates the plate collision had taken place.

It is thought to originate in the Earth's mantle and was forced up from the depths during a plate collision several hundred million years ago.

Scioscia, however, has claimed he had an even harder plate collision the following season.

It is not, however, principally of volcanic origin, being instead mainly oceanic crust that has been lifted by the plate collision.
