We provide a thorough review of the literature on peraluminous magmatism of Late
Neoproterozoic and Early Palaeozoic (mostly Late Cambrian-Middle Ordovician) age …

The general configuration of the main continental blocks in the Gondwana supercontinent
and the Ediacaran–early Paleozoic tectonic evolution of its northern margin are widely …

Understanding crustal growth, reworking, and geodynamics of the northern continental
margin of Gondwana during Ediacaran to Silurian times plays an important role in …

An eclogite-facies orthogneiss and host paragneiss from a quarry near Tavagnasco in the
Lower Aosta Valley were studied in order to refine the protolith, provenance and …

Abstract The proto-Alpine Cenerian orogen (Ediacaran-Ordovician) and the Cadomian
orogen (Ediacaran-Cambrian), remnants of which are exposed in the central European …

Ordovician geodynamics along the northern Gondwana margin, defined in most parts of
exotic southern peri-Gondwanan Europe, had a far-field effect on the subsiding Gondwanan …

Abstract Zircon U‐Pb‐He double dating (ZDD) provides the opportunity to derive high
temperature crystallization ages and low temperature cooling ages from the very same …

Greywackes make up a substantial part of the Cadomian basement of Saxo-Thuringia. Here,
their classification as greywackes and the timing of metamorphic overprint are re-evaluated …

Abstract The Troiseck-Floning and Rosskogel nappes are part of the Austroalpine Unit in the
eastern part of the Eastern Alps. The nappes are in tectonic contact and comprise Permian …

Radiogenic isotopes of igneous and detrital minerals from various clastic rocks of mountain
