This work examines the global distribution of Archaean and modern igneous rock's
compositions, without relying on preconceptions about the link between rock compositions …

This article reviews the geology of the Sveconorwegian orogen in south Scandinavia and
existing tectonic models for the Mesoproterozoic to Neoproterozoic Sveconorwegian …

Granitoids are a major component of the continental crust. They play a pivotal role in its
evolution, either by adding new material (continental growth), or by reworking older …

Granite petrogenesis is associated with the formation and evolution of continental crust
along convergent plate boundaries. While magmatic processes such as partial melting and …

We propose a review to discuss the large number of studies dealing with the fluid history in
extensional and compressional sedimentary basins that evolved along the Iberian-Eurasian …

Mantle-derived potassic to ultrapotassic magmatism is a typical feature of collisional
orogens. Potassium-rich magmas recurrently formed across the European Variscides during …

In this paper we review processes responsible for the formation of granites in subduction
systems. While there is robust evidence that strongly peraluminous, so-called S-type …

The Velay anatectic dome in the Variscan French Massif Central exposes a low-pressure–
high-temperature metamorphic sequence, which represents an ideal natural laboratory for …

This paper present new U–Pb geochronological data (LA-ICP MS on zircon) of granitoids
from the Moroccan Meseta Variscan belt. Zircons from the Oulad Ouaslam granodiorite in …

Flow of partially molten crust controlling construction, growth and collapse of the Variscan
orogenic belt: the geologic record of the French Massif CentralImpact du fluage de la croûte …
