Multi‐Method Geophysical Surveys Between and Around the Kerlescan and the Manio Megalithic Alignments in Carnac (Morbihan, France)

Archaeological Prospection, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 499-517, April/June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Carnac alignments in Morbihan (France) are among the most famous Neolithic sites of the world. Paradoxically, they have benefited little from a thorough renewal of archaeological data over the past century. There are many reasons for this, but it is mainly because the site has been regarded more as a monument to visit and protect than as ...

Geochemistry and geochronology of the Palaeozoic mafic magmatism in the Codosera, Almadén and Guadalmez synclines, Central Iberian Zone, Spain

BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
The Central Iberian Zone (CIZ) hosts several mafic suites showing variable geochemical affinities and signatures evolving through time. To provide a better understanding of magmatic processes, possible sources and the temporal evolution of the mafic ...

Île Dumet (Armorican Massif, France) and its glaucophane eclogites: the little sister of Île de Groix [PDF]

European Journal of Mineralogy
Blueschist-facies rocks are scarce within the Variscan orogen. Two main occurrences are known in the Armorican Massif (NW France), at Île de Groix and Bois-de-Céné.

Long‐Term Storage of Meteoric Water in the Variscan Basement: Stable Isotope Constraints (δD–δ18O)

Terra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 116-123, April 2026.
ABSTRACT F‐Ba‐Pb‐Zn (±Ag) deposits near the unconformity between the Armorican and Aquitaine basins formed by mixing surface waters and brines with fluid ascending from the basement. To better constrain the source of this fluid and the conditions of mixing, we analyzed the hydrogen (δDwater) and oxygen (δ18Owater) isotopic composition of water trapped ...

Élaboration d'une typologie des formes de vallées. Application au bassin de la Maine (plateaux du Nord-Ouest de la France)

Physio-Géo, 2014
Valleys are rarely studied as specific relief elements. We propose a typology based on morphological data processing from a digital elevation model (DEM).

Dating C/S Structures in Syntectonic Granites by In Situ Rb‐Sr Analyses on Muscovite

Terra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 124-129, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The interplay of crystallisation, deformation and fluid–rock interactions makes deciphering geochronological information complex in syntectonic granites. In this study, we apply in situ Rb‐Sr analyses to selected samples from the Questembert Variscan syntectonic granite in Western France, which was emplaced along the South Armorican Shear Zone

The Armorican Massif (Western France) - A buried relief two times exhumed in response to Iberia-Eurasia movements (Early Cretaceous, base of Cenozoic)

, 2014
International audienceThe Armorican Massif is an outcropping Variscan basement located in Western France. The age of its exhumation is debated, as most of the outcropping European basements: Is this relief a remnant of the planation of the Variscan Belt ...

Freshwater amphibians and squamates from Villeveyrac (lower Campanian; Hérault, France): palaeodiversity, palaeoenvironment and implications for the Late Cretaceous palaeobiogeography of the European herpetofauna

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract The Late Cretaceous witnessed numerous transgression–regression sequences and the onset of a global cooling phase at the start of the Campanian. In the European archipelago, these environmental changes, combined with active plate tectonics, facilitated the formation of ephemeral land bridges that served as dispersal routes for a variety of ...

Potentialités écologiques des carrières de quartzite après exploitation : l'exemple de la carrière de Cheffois (Vendée, France)

Physio-Géo, 2011
In abandoned quarries of massive rocks, the aridity and oligotrophic character of soils, combined with the presence of rock walls and water bodies in the deeper excavations, are favourable to the expression of a renewed, original biodiversity.

Contribution of morphometrics to the systematics of the Ordovician genus Neseuretus (Calymenidae, Trilobita) from the Armorican massif, France.

, 2013
16 pagesInternational audienceThe genus Neseuretus Hicks, 1873 is the most abundant trilobite of the Ordovician siltite succession of the Andouill'e and Traveusot Formations in the French Armorican massif. The systematics of some species of Neseuretus is
