This paper provides a review of the evolution of palaeomagnetic directions and sequence of tectonic events in the European Variscan belt during Late Palaeozoic times. These data are …
Abstract In the Internal Zone of a continental collisional orogen, first-order contractional shear zones accommodate crustal shortening. Structural investigations at different scales …
Detailed geological field mapping, integrated with meso-and microstructural investigations, kinematic of the flow and finite strain analyses, combined with geochronology, are …

Abstract The Corsica–Sardinia Batholith formed in the late Carboniferous–Permian along the northern Gondwana margin. One or more of the following processes may have raised …
Abstract The Camarat Granitic Complex (CGC), emplaced in the migmatitic Internal Zone of the Maures–Tanneron Massif (MTM), SE Variscides, consists of the Gigaro granodiorite and …
The Variscan high‐grade metamorphic basement of northern Sardinia and southern Corsica record lower Carboniferous anatexis related to post‐collisional decompression of the …
Abstract The Eastern Catalan Pyrenees form the southernmost segment of the Pyrenean Axial Zone. They experienced complex multistage process as the result of both the Variscan …

Abstract The Ligurian Alps are the southernmost segment of the Alpine orogenic belt. Their formation is the result of a multistage process that comprises two orogenic cycles: the …
Palaeomagnetic investigations of the Corso-Sardinian block and Maures–Estérel show that there has been a change in their magnetic orientation during the Late Carboniferous–Early …
