Gfohl Terrane
Collage tectonics in the northeasternmost part of the Variscan Belt: the Sudetes, Bohemian Massif
Abstract A synthesis of published and new data is used to interpret the Sudetic segment of the Variscan belt as having formed by the accretion of four major and two or three minor terranes. From west to east the major terranes are (1) Lusatia-Izera Terrane, exposing Armorican continental basement reworked by Ordovician plutonism and Late Devonian-Carboniferous collision, showing Saxothuringian affinities; (2) composite Góry Sowie-Kłodzko Terrane characterized by multistage evolution (Silurian subduction, mid- to late Devonian collision, exhumation and extension, Carboniferous deformational overprint), with analogues elsewhere in the Bohemian Massif, Massif Central and Armorica; (3) Moldanubian (Gföhl) Terrane comprising the Orlica-Śnieżnik and Kamieniec massifs, affected by Early Carboniferous high-grade metamorphism and exhumation and (4) Brunovistulian Terrane in the East Sudetes, set up on Avalonian crust and affected by Devonian to late Carboniferous sedimentation, magmatism and tectonism. The main terranes are separated by two smaller ones squeezed along their boundaries: (1) Moravian Terrane, between the Moldanubian and Brunovistulian, deformed during Early Carboniferous collision, and (2) SE Karkonosze Terrane of affinities to the Saxothuringian oceanic realm, sandwiched betwen the Lusatia-Izera and Góry Sowie-Kłodzko (together with Teplá-Barrandian) terranes, subjected to high pressure-metamorphism and tectonized during Late Devonian-Early Carboniferous convergence. The Kaczawa Terrane in the NW, of oceanic accretionary prism features, metamorphosed and deformed during latest Devonian-Early Carboniferous times, may either be a distinct unit unrelated to closure of the Saxothuringian Ocean or represent a continuation of the SE Karkonosze Terrane.

Diamond and coesite discovered in Saxony-type granulite: Solution to the Variscan garnet peridotite enigma
Abstract Multidisciplinary investigations of the western margin of the East European Craton (EEC) by EUROPROBE projects since 1992 have confirmed that the Trans-European Suture Zone (TESZ) is the most fundamental lithospheric boundary in Europe, extending 2000 km from the North Sea to the Black Sea-Crimean region. The crust of the EEC is thicker and denser than that of Phanerozoic-accreted Europe, and the base of the lithospheric mantle significantly deeper. These characteristics persist throughout the length of the TESZ, despite the variation in age of the accreted crust along strike. Geological studies of key deep borehole cores and the limited outcrop data confirm that the crust of Phanerozoic-accreted Central Europe comprises a number of terranes, each thought to be derived from Gondwana during several episodes of rifting, ocean formation, ocean destruction and sequential accretion to the EEC throughout Palaeozoic time. There is still much discussion about the identity, provenance and history of these orogenic terranes. The process of accretion led to the formation of terrane-bounding orogenic sutures, which may be marked in outcrop by ophiolitic and eclogitic relics. Recognition of concealed sutures is obviously more difficult, and relies on a variety of geophysical techniques, used in an integrated way by multidisciplinary teams; the evidence from deep seismic reflection and refraction surveys, teleseismic tomography, magnetotelluric experiments and from geophysical potential-field modelling is crucial for such studies. Since the European Geotraverse, much has been learnt about the geometry of the Thor, Iapetus, Rheic, Saxo-Thuringian and Moldanubian oceanic sutures, through the crust and sometimes into the mantle. This has led to a much better understanding of the 3D crustal structure of the Western Accretionary Margin of the EEC, and the lithospheric processes that have shaped it. From this, the influence of tectonic heterogeneities within the orogenic crust on the development of post-orogenic structures and basins can be much better constrained.
The mid-European segment of the Variscides: tectonostratigraphic units, terrane boundaries and plate tectonic evolution
Abstract The mid-European segment of the Variscides is a tectonic collage consisting of (from north to south): Avalonia, a Silurian–early Devonian magmatic arc, members of the Armorican Terrane Assemblage (ATA: Franconia, Saxo-Thuringia, Bohemia) and Moldanubia (another member of the ATA or part of N Gondwana?).
Timing and kinematics of the Variscan orogenic cycle at the Moldanubian periphery of the central Bohemian Massif
Abstract U–Pb zircon dating and geochemical investigations were applied to rocks from the Variscan deformed and metamorphosed Drosendorf Unit of the eastern Bohemian Massif, Austria. Data show that this unit contains remnants of a Mesoproterozoic granite (Dobra Gneiss Type A), early Neoproterozoic sediments (paragneiss, marble) and late Neoproterozoic volcanic-arc granitoids from the Avalonian–Cadomian peri-Gondwana Orogen (Dobra Gneiss Type B, Spitz Gneiss). A rock association of such old age is extraordinary in the Variscan Orogen. We interpret that these rocks were originally part of the Brunovistulian foreland plate (i.e. part of Avalonian Europe and the Devonian Old Red Continent, respectively) before being tectonically incorporated into the eastern flank of the Variscan Orogen. This interpretation is considered likely because the Dobra Gneiss Type B turned out to be extremely similar, geochemically and in age, to the Bittesch Gneiss in the Moravian Zone, which is generally accepted as a Brunovistulian (i.e. Avalonian) rock. Based on the zircon ages measured in ortho- and paragneiss samples, the Drosendorf Unit can be excellently correlated with West Amazonia. This supports the long-standing idea that Avalonian Europe contains terranes of Amazonian ancestry. A model is presented to show how West Amazonian rocks could have been transferred to Europe in the Early Paleozoic.
Structural position of high-pressure felsic to intermediate granulites from NE Moldanubian domain (Bohemian Massif)
The Bohemian Massif and the NW Himalaya
Abstract Although the occurrence of eclogites and garnet peridotites in the Bohemian Massif has been known for more than a century, evidence for ultrahigh pressure metamorphism (UHPM) by indicator minerals has been reported only very recently (diamond: Massonne, 1999 ; coesite: Massonne, 2001a ). In contrast, although eclogites were recognised in the Tso Morari area by Berthelsen (1953) , the first real petrological investigation of eclogites in the NW Himalaya followed their discovery in Pakistan in the 1980’s (Ghazanfar & Chaudhry, 1986, 1987). The finding of coesite soon after, in both Pakistan and India (O’Brien et al., 1999, 2001; Sachan et al., 2001) indicates UHP metamorphic conditions for these rocks. The timing of detection can, of course, be no criterium for treating both areas in one chapter. Rather it seems to be that both areas are very contrasting, which is certainly true in regard of the outcrop situation. In the well-mapped Bohemian Massif, natural exposures in deep valleys or as cliffs or crags at higher levels are rare and are only supplemented by a few quarries. In the poorly mapped NW Himalaya, the majestic and steep mountains provide excellent outcrops although they are less accessible and cover an enormous area. Further contrasts could also be listed, such that at first glance both areas addressed here seem to be perfect opposites. However, in the subsequent section we will outline the many common features of the HP and UHP areas of the Bohemian Massif and the NW Himalaya within a larger geographical framework. After presenting some detailed petrographic and geochronological information on key areas in both orogenic sections, we will try to interpret these in terms of a continent-continent collision model accounting for the different states of both the Bohemian Massif and NW Himalaya in terms of orogenic development.
