Volume 16 - Evolution of the western Alps: insights from metamorphism, structural geology, tectonics and geochronology

Edited By: Marco Beltrando, Gordon S. Lister, Jerome Ganne, Anne-Marie Boullier

This volume includes several original contributions focussed on the tectonic evolution of the Western Alps, including brittle deformation between internal gneiss domes, a Palaeo Ocean Floor in the Subducted Tethys, a serpentinite subduction channel the Monviso ophiolite massif, subduction of the Alpine crust in the Sesia-Lanzo zone, a new eclogitic unit in the Cottian Alps,

structural evolution versus rock chemistry during eclogization, post-nappe brittle tectonics, and implications of a 330 Ma-old magnesio-potassic magmatic suite.
