It is in an area of Algeria called the Saharan Atlas Range (considered a subrange of the Atlas Mts).

Looks like a structural geologist’s paradise.

If so, I’ll guess that this is in the zargos mountains of Iran. Assuming you haven’t worked out rotations yet, I’ll say the eastern part.

Have you had a look at where in the galaxy?
