Zircon formation during fluid circulation in eclogites (Monviso, Western Alps): implications for Zr and Hf budget in subduction zones
The zircons from an eclogite and an enclosed eclogite-facies vein from the Monviso

Zircons from Syros, Cyclades, Greece—recrystallization and mobilization of zircon during high-pressure metamorphism
Zircons were studied from high-pressure/low-temperature metamorphosed meta-igneous
lithologies from Syros. These rocks carry several zircon generations related to each other by …

[PDF][PDF] Subduction tectonics and exhumation of high-pressure metamorphic rocks in the Mediterranean orogens
Using the peri-Mediterranean blueschist belts as a case study we discuss the mechanisms
of syn-orogenic exhumation of high-pressure (HP) and ultra-highpressure (UHP) rocks. The …

Europe from the Variscan to the Alpine cycles
GM Stampfli, HW Kozur - 2006 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
The time span between the Variscan and Alpine cycles is not devoid of any major tectonic
activity, and corresponds to the Cimmerian cycle. Between the Early Permian and Late …

I-type plutonism in a continental back-arc setting: Miocene granitoids and monzonites from the central Aegean Sea, Greece
R Altherr, W Siebel - Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, 2002 - Springer
Miocene extension in the Aegean Sea was accompanied by the intrusion of granitoid and
monzonitic magmas at upper crustal levels. With increasing distance from the trench, the …
