TL;DR: In this article, a revised terrane classification based on Vendian-Cambrian geodynamic units and evolution of terranes is described. And reactivated suture zones along the terrane boundaries are proposed, which suggest the important role of strike-slip deformations in the formation of mosaic block structure of Central Asia.
