Variscan deformation of the Hesperian massif in the Lousã mountain range (central Portugal) [PDF]
[Abstract] The occidental region of the Central-Iberian Zone of the Variscan Iberian massif, in the central part of Portugal (Lousã mountain range), has a Variscan tectonostructural organization as the one recognized in the occidental border of the ...

Late- to post-Variscan extensional tectonics in south Cornwall [PDF]
Faults which post-date Variscan contractional deformation are ubiquitous in south Cornwall. Three broad geometric/kinematic types can be defined. The first type comprises low angle (dip 45°) extensional faults which generally offset earlier low-angle ...

The Addition of Felsic Sediments to the Lower Continental Crust During the Variscan Orogeny
Lower crustal metasedimentary xenoliths (garnet‐sillimanite granulites) from the Bournac breccia pipe in the Massif Central, France, provide a robust example of sediments transported to depth and incorporated into stable lower continental crust during a ...

Organization of pre-Variscan basement areas at the north-Gondwanan margin [PDF]
Pre-Variscan basement elements of Central Europe appear in polymetamorphic domains juxtaposed through Variscan and/or Alpine tectonic events. Consequently, nomenclatures and zonations applied to Variscan and Alpine structures, respectively, cannot be ...
