... interpreted the South Ophiolite Belt as a northerly derived tectonic klippe rooted in the North Ophiolite Belt (Kapp et al., 2003; Kapp and DeCelles, 2019), or as a tectonic boundary within the Lhasa Terrane (Pan et al., 2004; Zhu et al., 2013). However, the two subbelts contain flysch and ophiolites...

... formations (BIMFs) and/or large blocks embedded in layered flysch sequences in the sedimentary record of ancient collisional belts ( Festa et al. 2016 ). As the formation of these sedimentary basins is coeval with propagation of the orogeny towards the passive margin, they provide key constraints...

...Paola Cipollari; Anas Abbassi; Domenico Cosentino ABSTRACT To the NE of Santa Severa (RM) some Meso-Cenozoic carbonate rocks with Tuscan affinity crop out in tectonic windows within the allochthonous Flysch della Tolfa (External Ligurian Unit). These carbonate rocks are mainly referable...

... as flysch units with a broad age range (Triassic–Paleogene) and limited biostratigraphic age control (e.g. Brunnschweiler 1966 ; Bannert et al. 2011 ). At the time of our fieldwork (2016), access to some parts of the Rakhine coastal area was prohibited or restricted. Road-building has created some new...

... stockwork. Three broad lithostratigraphic groups occur in the regional stratigraphy: the phyllite-quartzite group, the volcano-sedimentary complex, and the Baixo Alentejo Flysch Group. These three major packages reflect the evolution of a depositional environment from a stable platform to deposition in pull...

.... In northern Tunisia, the Numidian Flysch can be subdivided into three members: the Zouza, Kroumirie, and Babouch members ( Fig. 1 ; Rouvier 1977 ; Torricelli and Biffi 2001 ; Riahi et al. 2010 ). The sampled beds under investigation are located at the northeastward-jutting headland Cap Serrat, along...

... by gravitational currents into deep basins. Such phenomena played important roles in accumulation in the Carpathian Basins, a part of the western Tethys Ocean along the southern slopes of the European platform. Spiculitic deposits formed thick bodies in the mid-Cretaceous flysch of the Silesian nappe. This study...

..., for example, along major fault zones. In addition, the 87 Sr/ 86 Sr ratios of vein carbonates can trace the diagenetic to metamorphic evolution of pore fluids in accreted sediments. Here we present 87 Sr/ 86 Sr ratios of vein carbonates from the Infrahelvetic flysch units of the central European Alps (Glarus...

... deposits (mixed successions) of the “Mérinides Facies” from the “Maghrebian Flysch Basin” and the “Beliounis Facies” from the Predorsalian Unit. Our petrographic analyses and detrital zircon U-Pb ages show that the quartzarenites of the “Numidian Facies” originated from the African Craton, whereas...

...) the Galestri fm. (lower Cretaceous). The Flysch Rosso fm. (Upper Cretaceous-Oligocene) and the incertae sedis Argille Variegate Group, (Cretaceous to Oligocene in age) cover the basinal Lagonegro succession with unclear tectono-stratigraphic relationships ( Fig. 1 B) ( Tavarnelli et alii , 1998 a; P...

... of the distal depositional domain of the Bordighera Sandstone (BGS). In its distal domain, the sand-rich Bordighera turbidite system is characterized by direct interbedding with calcareous fine-grained turbidites of the Sanremo Helminthoid Flysch, and features high proportions of HEBs and TFDs. Analysis...

... the structural growing of the Apennine orogenic belt over the Adria margin. One of these clastic wedges is represented by the Agnone Flysch turbidite succession deposited in the Lagonegro-Molise foredeep basin in the early Messinian, for which the depositional facies and the related processes, as well...

... as delivering the olistoliths to the Magura Basin ( Fig. 1 ). The Złatne nappe constitutes the upper flysch tectonic unit, and it is not connected with the Central Carpathian Paleogene Basin ( Janočko and Jacko 1998 ). This basin contains Eocene to Lower Miocene (e.g. Gedl and Garecka 2008 ; Hók et al. 2019...

... forming the elevated Axial Zone, bounded to the south by the South Pyrenean Zone (SPZ) mostly formed by detached Mesozoic thrust-sheets comprising synorogenic Upper Cretaceous-Tertiary flysch and molasse sediments and to the north by the North Pyrenean Zone (NPZ), a narrow belt of Mesozoic sediments...

... to the Złatne and Hulina nappes. Both nappes contain large chaotic, non-reflective olistoliths as well as the smaller mainly high-reflective olistoliths. Olistoliths are arranged parallel to the flysch layering and thrusts. The results presented confirm the postulated two olistostrome belts within the PKB...

...Simone Mineo; Giovanna Pappalardo; Claudio Ivan Casciano; Agata Di Stefano; Stefano Catalano; Marco Gagliano ABSTRACT A multidisciplinary integrated approach for the study of heterogeneous rock masses is presented herein with the aim of providing a characterization of one of the widest flysch...

... of Adria microcontinent. The inherited wedge-shaped architecture of this OCT, which gradually closed toward the north in the present-day Canavese Zone, controlled the Late Cretaceous–early Eocene flysch deposition at the trench of the External Ligurian accretionary wedge during the oblique subduction...

... and their consequences: a tribute to A.M. Celâl Şengör”. In the Almacık Block, the samples were collected from the metamorphic formations of the Sakarya Zone and from Upper Cretaceous flysch and Eocene volcanic and volcaniclastic formations developed in the İstanbul Zone (supplementary data Table S1 2...

...) and zircon (U-Th)/He (ZHe) data reveal that the Boundary block and the Russell Fiord block have different cooling histories since the Miocene, and thus the Boundary fault that separates them is an important tectonic boundary. Upper Cretaceous to Paleocene flysch of the Russell Fiord block experienced...

... above from flysch below, were investigated using a 50 MHz antenna in the Črnotiče quarry. After one part of the quarry was deepened and widened, new flysch outcrops were exposed and GPR profiling was made possible in areas where the thrust contact could not be reached before. By comparing the first GPR...
