The Variscan evolution in the External massifs of the Alps and place in their Variscan framework [PDF]
Comptes Rendus - Geoscience, 2009 In the general discussion on the Variscan evolution of central Europe the pre-Mesozoic basement of the Alps is, in many cases, only included with hesitation.

On the Upper Ordovician unconformity in the Pyrenees: New evidence from the La Cerdanya area [PDF]
Geologica Acta, 2007 In recent years, contradictory reports about whether or not an unconformity exists at the base of the Upper Ordovician succession of the Pyrenees have been made.

Metamorphic Remnants of the Variscan Orogeny across the Alps and Their Tectonic Significance
Geosciences (Switzerland), 2023 Lithospheric slices preserving pre-Alpine metamorphic imprints are widely described in the Alps. The Variscan parageneses recorded in continental, oceanic, and mantle rocks suggest a heterogeneous metamorphic evolution across the Alpine domains.

Structural map of Variscan northern Sardinia (Italy) [PDF]
Journal of Maps, 2015 In this paper, we present a geological structural map (1:100,000 scale, ∼2300 km2 surface area) of the Variscan basement of northern Sardinia. The map integrates field structural analysis, extensive gamma-ray spectrometry, and high-resolution ELA-ICP-MS ...

Gondwana-derived microcontinents — the constituents of the Variscan and Alpine collisional orogens [PDF]
Tectonophysics, 2003 The European Variscan and Alpine mountain chains are collisional orogens, and are built up of pre-Variscan ``building blocks'' which, in most. cases, originated at the Gondwana margin.

Geochemical and geochronological dataset of rutile from a Variscan metabasite in Sardinia, Italy [PDF]
Data in Brief, 2020 A c. 500 m wide and 1.5 km long body consisting of basic to ultrabasic rocks, metamorphosed up to granulite-facies and retrogressed to amphibolite-facies conditions during the Variscan orogeny, crops out near Olbia (NE Sardinia, Italy).

Variscan structures and their control on latest to post-Variscan basin architecture: insights from the westernmost Bohemian Massif and southeastern Germany [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2022 The Bohemian Massif exposes structures and metamorphic rocks remnant from the Variscan orogeny in central Europe and is bordered by the Franconian Fault System (FFS) to the west.

Together but separate: decoupled Variscan (late Carboniferous) and Alpine (Late Cretaceous–Paleogene) inversion tectonics in NW Poland [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2022 In Europe, formation of the Palaeozoic Variscan orogenic belt, and the Mesozoic–Cenozoic Alpine–Carpathian orogenic belt led to a widespread inversion events within forelands of both orogenic domains.
