To provide a better picture of the active geodynamics along the Variscan suture zones during the late collisional stage (particularly regarding the evolution of the orogenic system towards HT conditions), we focused here on vaugnerites, which consist of ...

Processes and Sources during Late Variscan Dioritic–Tonalitic Magmatism: Insights from Plagioclase Chemistry (Gęsiniec Intrusion, NE Bohemian Massif, Poland) [PDF]
The Ge siniec Intrusion (Strzelin Massif, East Sudetes) ( 307^290 Ma) is composed predominantly of dioritic to tonalitic rocks with Sr/Sr ratios ranging from 0 7069 to 0 7080 and eNd1⁄4 ^3 1 to ^4 2, emplaced as post-collisional magmas following theVariscan orogeny.
