Northern Oman, with the whole country in the inset. Outline: Natural Earth 1:50m (public domain). Markers are approximate areas from GeoAstro’s own place list — not individual sites. No geological boundaries are shown; a licensed geological map is required for that. Landscape region names are approximate labels, not boundaries. Across the whole country (inset): Musandam in the far north, the Al Hajar Mountains, the Sharqiya (Wahiba) Sands, the Al Huqf area and Masirah in the centre-east, desert plains and the Rub’ al Khali in the west, and the Dhofar Mountains in the south.

Around Muscat, rocks of the Samail ophiolite, high-pressure metamorphic rocks of the Saih Hatat area and younger fossil-rich limestones lie close together — a compact journey through Oman’s tectonic history.
