Geological investigations of the Lizard District, Cornwall, England: 1818–1883 [PDF]
A lower Paleozoic slab of oceanic lithosphere was obducted onto the southern margin of Avalonia during the Variscan orogeny and is now exposed throughout the Lizard District of Cornwall, England.

Long‐Term Storage of Meteoric Water in the Variscan Basement: Stable Isotope Constraints (δD–δ18O)
ABSTRACT F‐Ba‐Pb‐Zn (±Ag) deposits near the unconformity between the Armorican and Aquitaine basins formed by mixing surface waters and brines with fluid ascending from the basement. To better constrain the source of this fluid and the conditions of mixing, we analyzed the hydrogen (δDwater) and oxygen (δ18Owater) isotopic composition of water trapped ...

Dating C/S Structures in Syntectonic Granites by In Situ Rb‐Sr Analyses on Muscovite
ABSTRACT The interplay of crystallisation, deformation and fluid–rock interactions makes deciphering geochronological information complex in syntectonic granites. In this study, we apply in situ Rb‐Sr analyses to selected samples from the Questembert Variscan syntectonic granite in Western France, which was emplaced along the South Armorican Shear Zone

Fluid inclusions in mineralized fracture infillings (i.e., veins) could preserve information about subsurface fluids like temperature and salinity.

Abstract Petrological and seismic constraints suggest differential sampling depth for ultrahigh pressure (UHP) metamorphic rocks exposed in different segments of the fossil subduction zone of the Western Alps. However, the mechanisms for the observed differential exhumation remain to be understood. Here, we account for the continental margin subduction

Abstract Characteristic remanent magnetizations isolated from the late Variscan Altenberg–Teplice Caldera exhibit paleomagnetic directions, ranging from those consistent with the expected primary Late Carboniferous geomagnetic field to intermediate directions that significantly diverge from the dipole states.

The pre-Variscan rocks of the Pyrenees exhibit a polyphase deformation linked to the Variscan crustal shortening and a low-pressure–high-temperature metamorphism. However, there is scarce chronostratigraphic evidence of this Variscan deformation. In the

The thermal evolution of magmatic systems of the Altenberg‐Teplice and Tharandter Wald calderas, which erupted during the terminal post‐collisional phase of the Variscan orogeny in the Bohemian Massif, was investigated. The zircon saturation temperatures
