Geochemistry of two associated ophiolites from the Cabo Ortegal Complex (Variscan belt of NW Spain)

open access: yes, 2007
Two Paleozoic ophiolites of different age mark the Variscan suture in the Cabo Ortegal Complex (northwestern Iberian Massif). The Moeche and Purrido allochthonous ophiolites are structurally located between an exotic terrane of continental affinity ...

Geochemistry of amphibolites and related graphitic gneisses from the Suchý and Malá Magura Mountains (central Western Carpathians) – evidence for relics of the Variscan ophiolite complex

open access: yesGeologica Carpathica, 2015
Three small bodies of amphibolites and associated graphitic gneisses from the Suchý and Malá Magura Mountains (Tatric Megaunit, central Western Carpathians) have been studied by petrographic and geochemical methods.

Ophiolites of Japan.

open access: yesJournal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1989
The Japanese ophiolites are divided into nappe type and melange type by their occurrences. The nappe type formed in a short period (a few 10Ma), and emplaced shortly after its igneous formation keeping its original igneous stratigraphy. They generally escaped from post-emplacement, high-pressure metamorphism. The melange type is a mixture of ophiolitic

An overview of the evolution of the internal hellenides (Albania, Republic of North Macedonia, Greek Central Macedonia): obductions, collisions and North Aegean extension

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
The geological analysis of the Albanian-Macedonian transect constraints a framework of the Internal Hellenides in which 3 or 4 Jurassic oceanic basins opened at 174–160 Ma; they bordered the Western European Continent.

Formation mechanism and stability analysis of a landslide in altered ophiolite in the upper reaches of Jinsha River: A case study of the Duirongtong landslide

open access: yesDizhi lixue xuebao
Objective  The tectonic suture zone of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has a complex rock mass structure and special lithology combination and is thus prone for large landslides.

A new look at the geodynamic development of the Ediacaran–early Cambrian forearc basalts of the Tannuola-Khamsara Island Arc (Central Asia, Russia): Conclusions from geological, geochemical, and Nd-isotope data

open access: yesOpen Geosciences
Oceanic igneous rocks throughout the Altai-Sayan Fold Belt (ASFB) in central-southern Siberia are often considered to be late Precambrian–early Paleozoic accreted elements of oceanic crust – often of uncertain paleogeographic or geodynamic origin.

The Mesozoic ophiolites of the Alps: a review

open access: yes, 1994
The Alpine ophiolites are mostly concentrated in the inner and axial sectors of the Penninic nappe pile, as slices of the Jurassic Tethyan ocean which opened between the Europe and Adria (Africa) passive margins.

The ophiolites of southern Quebec: oceanic crust of Betts Cove type

open access: yes, 1977
The Thetford and Asbestos ophiolites of the Eastern Townships of Quebec (Internal Domain) resemble the Betts Cove ophiolite of Newfoundland in three significant respects: (1) ultramafic cumulate sequences of the ophiolites include units with cumulus ...

The Shalap Mélange of the Salairian Alambay Ophiolite Zone (Northwestern Central Asian Orogenic Belt), Geological Structure and Compositional Features of Amphibolites and Greenstone Basalts

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика
The Alambay ophiolite zone (AOZ) is located in the axial part of the Early Paleozoic Salair orogen and includes the northern extension of the Alambay-Kaim zone, Salair and Altai Mountains.
