Carboniferous-Permian tectono-metamorphic evolution of the Pelvoux Massif (External Crystalline Massif, Western Alps), with discussion on flow kinematics of the Eastern-Variscan Shear Zone

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2022
Based on new structural, petrological and U-Th-Pb geochronological data, a reappraisal of the Variscan tectono-metamorphic history of the Pelvoux Massif (External Crystalline Massif, French Alps) is proposed with the aim to understand the flow pattern ...

Polyphased rare-element magmatism during late orogenic evolution: geochronological constraints from NW Variscan Iberia

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2022
Rare-element granites and pegmatites represent important sources of raw materials for “clean, green and high technologies”, such as lithium and tantalum, for example.

Flow of partially molten crust controlling construction, growth and collapse of the Variscan orogenic belt: the geologic record of the French Massif Central

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2020
We present here a tectonic-geodynamic model for the generation and flow of partially molten rocks and for magmatism during the Variscan orogenic evolution from the Silurian to the late Carboniferous based on a synthesis of geological data from the French

On the occurrence of a Variscan eclogite in the Argentera-Mercantour Massif, Western Alps: Implications for the evolution of the southern Variscan belt

open access: yesGeological Society of America Bulletin
The newfound Bois de Sélasse eclogite in the eastern Argentera-Mercantour Massif (External Crystalline Massifs, Western Alps) is crucial for better constraining the tectonic evolution of the southern part of the Euro- pean Variscan belt.

New magnetotelluric data through the boundary between the Ossa Morena and Centroiberian Zones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The south-western part of the Iberian Peninsula, including the southern branch of the Iberian Massif, has recently been the subject of several magnetotelluric (MT) studies.

Tectonothermal evolution in the core of an arcuate fold and thrust belt: the south-eastern sector of the Cantabrian Zone (Variscan belt, north-western Spain) [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2016
The tectonothermal evolution of an area located in the core of the Ibero-Armorican Arc (Variscan belt) has been determined by using the conodont colour alteration index (CAI), Kübler index of illite (KI), the Árkai index of chlorite (AI) and the analysis

Sulphur isotope geochemistry of black shale-hosted antimony mineralization, Arnsberg, northern Rhenish Massif, Germany [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Vein-type and bedding-concordant mesothermal (180–410 °C) stibnite–sulphosalt mineralization at Arnsberg, NE Rhenish Massif, Germany, is hosted by Carboniferous pyrite-rich black shales and siliceous limestones.

The shape of the Variscan Belt in Central Europe : strike-slip tectonics versus oroclinal bending [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
"The European Variscan belt sharply changes its trend in easternmost Germany and western Poland, where the ENE- to NE-striking structures are replaced by the ESE- to SE-trending ones.

Variscan lamprophyres of the South Armorican Domain and comparison with lamprophyres of the Western European Variscan belt

open access: yesMineralogy and Petrology, 2022
Late to post-orogenic lamprophyres of the European Variscides attest variable compositions of the mantle beneath the structural zones of the belt. These compositions resulted from different contributions of mantle components involving geotectonic processes during the orogeny, such as oceanic subduction of mafic crust and sediments, continental ...

FAULT SYSTEMS IN THE UPPER CRUST OF THE CENTRAL ASIAN FOLDING BELT

open access: yesИзвестия высших учебных заведений: Геология и разведка, 2020
This article considers the disjunctive deformation of the upper crust in the Tien Shan and Altai-Sayan regions of the Central Asian folding belt. An analysis of the diagrams of fault directions constructed on the basis of information on more than 3000 ...
