Le Massif Armoricain / The Armorican Massif
Nous tentons dans cette synthèse de rassembler l'essentiel des données généralement admises concernant la stratigraphie, le magmatisme, le métamorphisme et la tectonique du Massif Armoricain. Ces données montrent que le socle armoricain représente l'héritage d'une longue évolution dont les témoins les plus anciens ont un âge voisin de 2000 Ma et qui s ...

Palaeozoic history of the Armorican Massif: Models for the tectonic evolution of the suture zones [PDF]
The Armorican Massif (western France) provides an excellent record of the Palaeozoic history of the Variscan belt. Following the Late Neoproterozoic Cadomian orogeny, the Cambro-Ordovician rifting was associated with oceanic spreading. The Central- and North-Amorican domains (which together constitute the core of the Armorica microplate) are bounded by

Timescales of regional circulation of saline fluids in continental crystalline rock aquifers (Armorican Massif, western France) [PDF]
In recent decades, saline fluids have been sampled worldwide at great depths in continental basements. Although some of them have been attributed to marine transgressions, the mechanisms allowing their circulation are not understood.

Late Devonian to Early Carboniferous palaeomagnetic poles from the Armorican Massif, France [PDF]
Summary In order to test plate tectonic hypotheses for the Hercynian orogeny in western Europe, Late Devonian and Cambro-Ordovician redbeds and volcanics have been palaeomagnetically studied. The Late Devonian redbeds show nearly univectorial remanent magnetizations during stepwise thermal, chemical and alternating field demagnetization and yield a ...

Late Pleistocene–Holocene denudation, uplift, and morphology evolution of the Armorican Massif (western Europe) [PDF]
Elevated Plio-Pleistocene coastal and marine markers in stable continental regions are commonly explained by a combination of eustatic sea-level variations and large-scale geological processes (e.g., crustal or mantle dynamics).

Eocambrian?Cambrian palaeomagnetism of the Armorican Massif, France [PDF]
In an attempt to clarify pre-Hercynian continental configurations, palaeomagnetic data were collected from the spilites de Paimpol (640 ± 12 Myr), the diorite de St Quay (583 ± 40 Myr), the gabbro de Keralain (undated), the granite de Port-Scarff (557 ± 16 Myr), the rhyolitic ignimbrites of Lézardrieux (546 ± 8 Myr) and the rhyolites de St Germain-le ...

An Atypical Silurian Myodocope Ostracod from the Armorican Massif, France [PDF]
A new myodocope ostracod Sineruga insolita gen. et sp. nov. is herein described from the Armorican Massif (France). Sineruga resembles Silurian myodocopes (i.e., bolbozoids and cypridinids) in having anterior features (thinner carapace) possibly related to vision.

A Mw 4.3 earthquake occurred on 2002 September 30, in the Armorican Massif, NW France. Since it was one of the largest events ever recorded in this region, this was the opportunity to improve our seismotectonic knowledge of the Armorican Massif.
