La cordillera Kopet Dag, también Kopetdag o Kopetdagh (del farsi: کپه‌داغ) está situada en el suroeste de Asia Central, al este del mar Caspio. Se extiende 650 km a lo largo de la frontera entre Turkmenistán e Irán. El pico más alto, del lado iraní, alcanza los 3.191 metros. (es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kopet_Dag)
En la imagen, buena parte de la esquina inferior izquierda (SW) es territorio iraní. A pocos kilómetros al noroeste (NW) de la imagen se encuentra Asjabad (Ashgabat), capital de Turkmenistán.

Geologically, the Kopet Dag Range is made chiefly of Lower Cretaceous sedimentary rocks with a smaller portion of Jurassic rocks in the southeastern parts. The mountains were formed in the Miocene and the Pliocene during the Alpine orogeny. As the Tethys Sea was closed and the Arabian Plate collided with the Iranian Plate and was pushed against it and with the clockwise movement of the Eurasian Plate towards the Iranian Plate and their final collision, the Iranian Plate was pressed against the Turan Platform. This collision folded the entire rocks that had been deposited in this geosyncline or basin from the Jurassic to the Miocene and formed the Kopet Dag Mountains. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kopet_Dag)
