Andean-type Orogeny

Andean-Type Orogeny is a tectonic process characterized by mountain building at convergent plate boundaries where oceanic lithosphere subducts beneath continental lithosphere, resulting in crustal thickening, magmatic arc development, and uplift without significant continent-continent collision.
