Remelting of Ordovician migmatites and granites during Variscan high-grade metamorphism (Aar Massif, Central Alps, Switzerland) [PDF]

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Geosciences
The remelting of felsic gneisses, migmatites and granite during a later orogenic cycle can produce rocks of different age with comparable field appearance, microstructure, mineralogical and chemical composition.

U-Pn geochronology of deformed metagranites in central Sutherland, Scotland: evidence for widespread late Silurian metamorphism and ductile deformation of the Moine Supergroup during the Caledonian orogeny [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Within the Caledonides of central Sutherland, Scotland, the Neoproterozoic metasedimentary rocks of the Moine Supergroup record NW-directed D2 ductile thrusting and nappe assembly, accompanied by widespread tight-to-isoclinal folding and amphibolite ...

The role of variscan shortening in the control of mineralization deposition in Tadaout-Tizi N’rsas mining district (Eastern Anti-Atlas, Morocco)

open access: yesBulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration, 2020
The abundance of the NE-SW direction veins mineralized in barite, copper, lead and zinc in the Tadaout-Tizi n’Rsas (TTR) anticline make this area one of the principal vein fields in Tafilalet (easternmost border of the Eastern Anti-Atlas).

A few remarks on the Triassic paleogeography and geodynamic link between the Dinarides an the Serbo-Macedonian unit [PDF]

open access: yesGeološki 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 ...

U-Pb geochronology of the Fort Augustus granite gneiss: constraints on the timing of Neoproterozoic and Palaeozoic tectonothermal events in the NW Highlands of Scotland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The West Highland granite gneiss suite in Inverness-shire, Scotland, represents a series of S-type, anatectic granites formed by partial melting of host Neoproterozoic metasediments of the Moine Supergroup.

40Ar ∕ 39Ar age constraints on the formation of fluid-rich quartz veins from the NW Rhenohercynian zone (Rursee area, Germany) [PDF]

open access: yesGeochronology
A substantial part of the subsurface geology in northwestern and central Europe is defined by the late Palaeozoic Variscan Orogeny (∼ 350 Ma). Our focus is mainly on veining in anchimetamorphic sedimentary rocks affected by this orogeny.
