An example of an collision zone would be types of fold mountains such as the Himalayas.
the Himalayas were formed by a collision plate boundary, meaning that the plates collided and formed the Himalayas. The Himalayas are also referred to as 'fold mountains' because of the way in which they are made.
The Ural mountains formed as a result of the collision of Europe with Asia and are folded mountains. Fold mountains are mountain ranges that are formed when two of the tectonic plates that make up the Earth's crust push together at their border. The extreme pressure forces the edges of the plates upwards into a series of folds.
the Himalayas were formed by a collision plate boundary, meaning that the plates collided and formed the Himalayas. The Himalayas are also referred to as 'fold mountains' because of the way in which they are made.
The Jura Mountains and the Zagros Mountains are examples of the fold mountains. The fold mountain is formed as a result of the effects if the folding on layers within the upper part of the crust of the earth.
Fold mountains are formed due to the collision of plates and earth movements.
Fold mountains are formed from the collision of continental tectonic plates. Since neither plate subducts under the other, the colliding plates wrinkle and fold like a rug being pushed into a wall.
By the means of plate tectonics at a zone of collision fold mountains are formed. At a zone of collision two continental plates collide and since they are of equal densities no subduction will take place but the two will collide and crumble and fold to form fold mountains.
One of the features of young fold mountains is that these are formed at destructive collision of tectonic plate boundaries. The Earth's crust are pushed to the surface therefore forming a series of fold mountains.

"It was formed by the collision of the Indian-subcontinent with Asia." http://www.indianchild.com/himalays.htm
No, the rocky mountains were not formed on a destructive plate. That is wrong, they are fold mountains, they were formed on a weakening in the plate, and millions of years ago the plate was under pressure and then it buckled and the Rockies were formed.
There are mainly two kinds of mountains, namely fold mountains and block mountains. Fold mountains are formed when a continental plate collides with either another continental plate or an oceanic plate. One example of a continental-continental collision is the collision of the Eurasian plate and the Indo-Australian plate, forming the Himalayas fold mountains range which contains Mt. Everest and K2. One example of a oceanic continental collision is the collision of the Nazca plate and the South American plate, forming the Andes mountains. ---- Block mountains are formed when two plate diverge from each other and sink downwards, leaving a highland in the middle of them. That is a block mountain. You might find this useful, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountains.

Volcanic activity can form fold mountains or block mountains. Fold mountains are formed when tectonic plates collide. Block mountains are formed when fault block shifts.
