Geologica Carpathica, 2019 Titanite belongs to the common accessory minerals in Variscan (~360–350 Ma) metaluminous to slightly peraluminous tonalites to granodiorites of I-type affinity in the Tatric and Veporic Units, the Western Carpathians, Slovakia.

Geofluids, 2020 In the basement areas of the southern Pannonian Basin, Central Europe (Tisia Composite Terrane, Hungary), Variscan blocks are essential components. The existing paleogeographic reconstructions, however, are often unclear and contradictory.

Structure of a Variscan migmatite-granite transition zone (N Sardinia, Italy)
Journal of Maps, 2023 This paper presents the structural map of the Barrabisa Complex, an E-W ribbon-like migmatitic massif exposed in the northern part of Sardinia. The migmatites consist of metatexites and diatexites with variable melt proportion, grading in the central ...

A few remarks on the Triassic paleogeography and geodynamic link between the Dinarides an the Serbo-Macedonian unit [PDF]
Geološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva, 2020 A recently recycled tectonic hypothesis in which the Serbo-Macedonian Unit rifted off during Ladinian from the Dinarides is tested. The Triassic rifting, according to this concept, led to the opening and the formation of a northwestern branch of ...

Outline of the Variscan basement of Sardinia [PDF]
, 2009 In Sardinia a quasi-complete section of the southern branch of the Variscan orogenic belt crops out, characterized by non-metamorphosed to high-grade rocks, whose age ranges from Early Cambrian to Early Carboniferous, and that are involved in a complex polyphase deformation.

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020 This study compares, for the first time, the mineralogy and geochemistry of two residual-clay deposits in NW Sardinia (Nurra district) that formed at different times in tropical and sub-tropical climates.

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract The paleomagnetism of Miocene calc‐alkaline volcanics and sediments from Sardinia has firmly showed that the Corsica‐Sardinia microplate rotated 50°–60° counterclockwise (CCW) with respect to Europe between 21 and 15 Ma, during its drift from the Provencal margin. However, Permian to Eocene rocks from central‐south Sardinia revealed higher (up

Sedimentary provenance of siliciclastic rocks from the Lalla Mouchaa Calcschists Formation (Coastal Block, Western Rehamna): Evidence of denudation of ca. 2 Ga basement in the Moroccan Meseta. [PDF]
, 2018 Paleoproterozoic basement rocks (ca. 2Ga) are scarce along the European and North African Paleozoic mountain chains (Fig.1a). In Morocco, ca. 2.2-2Ga granitic rocks (Gasquet et al., 2008; Kouyaté et al., 2013) have been exclusively reported in the ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract Topographic highlands commonly develop along convergent plate boundaries through long‐term processes such as subduction and continental collision. However, the pre‐Cenozoic mountain‐building history of deep‐time orogenic systems in northeastern Pangaea remains poorly constrained due to later tectonic overprinting and denudation.
