Pre-Alpine tectonic evolution of the Eastern Alps: from prototethys to paleotethys
In all reconstructions published during the last two decades, the Austroalpine and the
correlative Southalpine basement units of the Eastern Alps were considered to represent a …

The robustness of the Zr-in-rutile and Ti-in-zircon thermometers during high-temperature metamorphism (Ivrea-Verbano Zone, northern Italy)
This study investigates the behaviour of the Zr-in-rutile and Ti-in-zircon thermometers in
granulite facies metapelites from the Ivrea-Verbano Zone lower crustal section. U–Pb ages …

Zircon ages in granulite facies rocks: decoupling from geochemistry above 850° C?
Granulite facies rocks frequently show a large spread in their zircon ages, the interpretation
of which raises questions: Has the isotopic system been disturbed? By what process (es) …

Post-collisional alkaline magmatism as gateway for metal and sulfur enrichment of the continental lower crust
Mafic and ultramafic magmas that intrude into the lower crust can preserve evidence for
metal and sulfur transfer from the lithospheric mantle into the lower continental crust. Here …

Taking the temperature of Earth's hottest crust
The limitations of conventional thermobarometry and petrogenetic grids for determining the
peak P–T conditions of granulites are well known. These limitations have been overcome …
