Reconsidering the Variscan Basement of Southern Tuscany (Inner Northern Apennines) [PDF]

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
The Pre-Mesozoic units exposed in the inner Northern Apennines mostly consist of Pennsylvanian-Permian successions unconformably deposited on a continental crust consolidated at the end of the Variscan orogenic cycle (Silurian-Carboniferous).

Reconstructing the Variscan Terranes in the Alpine Basement: Facts and Arguments for an Alpidic Orocline

open access: yesGeosciences, 2022
The existence of pieces of the Variscan belt in the Alpine basement has been acknowledged for a long time but the correlation of these massifs to the litho-tectonic domains established in Western Europa outside the Alpine chain is still disputed.

Non-coaxial deformation of foreland basement involved in a fold-and-thrust belt: a strain partitioning approach to the Eastern Variscan orogen [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The general SW–NE course of the Variscan orogen in Europe is abruptly bent to the N–S course at its eastern margin, where an oblique convergence occurred.

Geochemical and geochronological dataset of rutile from a Variscan metabasite in Sardinia, Italy [PDF]

open access: yesData 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]

open access: yesSolid 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.

Late to post-Variscan basement segmentation and differential exhumation along the SW Bohemian Massif, central Europe [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2021
The exposed Variscan basement in central Europe is well-known for its complex structural and lithological architecture resulting from multiple deformation phases.

The role of the pre-Alpine polycrystalline basement in the paleogeographic configuration of multiple Neotethyan oceanic basins

open access: yesGeologija, 2021
The study provides a deeper understanding of the early Mesozoic paleogeogeographic spatial-temporal relationship by studying the two Adria-Europe intervening basement blocks.

Alpine, Variscan, eo-Variscan belts: comparison between hot and cold orogens from the examples of French segments

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Géoscience, 2023
The Cenozoic Alpine, and Paleozoic Variscan and eo-Variscan collisional belts are compared in the framework of the Wilson cycle considering differences between cold and hot orogens. The W.

The variscan basement in Sardinia [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Field Trips, 2015
After a short and up-to-date geological overview of the Variscan belt in Sardinia, we describe a field trip in the northeastern portion of the island that progresses from the low-grade metamorphic rocks to the Migmatite Complex and its related intrusions. The selected Stops are readily accessible and can be covered in four days.

Geology and structure of the Serre Massif upper crust: a look in to the late-Variscan strike–slip kinematics of the Southern European Variscan chain

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2022
A new geological-structural map of the southern Serre Massif (SM), in the south-central part of the Calabrian-Peloritani-Orogen (CPO), is provided. CPO is a ribbon-like microplates puzzle, originally belonging to the southern European Variscan Belt and ...
