Main Mantle Thrust fault (MMT) is a regional fault in the Northern Pakistan, lower swat of Pakistan. It is formed due to the collusion of INDIAN PLATE with the EURASIAN plate, which had happened in cretaceous age. It is the last boundary of INDIAN PLATE, beyond this to the NORTH is Kohistan Island Arc(Kia). KIA is the area between INDIAN PLATE and EURASIAN PLATE. Beyond the KIA towards the NORTH is Main Karakorum Thrust fault(MKT).
Both are the thrust faults and the characteristics of thrust faults is that it brings the older rocks over the younger rocks.
MKT is the start of EURASIAN PLATE, means after it EURASIAN PLATE starts.
