Subduction in the Paleogene was associated with high-pressure metamorphism, followed by a Barroviantype overprint, local partial melting and granitic plutonism in the Neogene. On the islands of Iraklia and Schinoussa Neogene metamorphism did not exceed mid-greenschist grade, and there are some well preserved older high-pressure/low temperature metamorphic assemblages. The rocks and structural geology of both islands had previously not been analysed in detail. Rocks present are calcite and dolomite marbles, in part with preserved paleosoils (metabauxites and metalaterites), and a suite of metapelitic schists with associated glaucophane schists and piemontite quartzites. There is a ductile deformation history comprising four events. The two older ones (D1, D2) are associated with high strains, and have resulted in a subhorizontal foliation, a N-S trending stretching lineation, and recumbent isoclinal folds with variable axial orientations. At least D1 is bracketed by the growth of glaucophane, with uncertain kinematics. D2, syn-blueschist grade on Iraklia, however, has a clear top-to-north sense of shear. D3 and D4 caused upright folds with N-S and E-W trending fold axes, respectively. This is evidence for late, two-phase horizontal shortening. As the deformed rocks show only a slight static metamorphic overprint, we have estimated flow stresses from dynamically recrystallized grain sizes of quartz and calcite. Coincident flow stress estimates are 28-62 MPa in quartzites, and 31-56 MPa in the marbles. Together with syntectonic temperature extimates, and applying published flow laws, this leads to estimated deformation rates on the order of 10−12 to 10−14 sec−1. Even though deformation history and kinematics is very similar to that on Naxos Island, the clear relation of the earlier part to high-pressure metamorphism on Iraklia and Schinoussa speaks in favour of a subduction-related setting here. This is in contrast to the later formation of metamorphic core complexes in the north (Naxos) and south (Ios).","PeriodicalId":350090,"journal":{"name":"Geotectonic Research","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116852657","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Several lithostratigraphic units are recognized. Sedimentary or tectonic relations between some of the units can be realized by comparing sedimentary and volcanic facies associations as well as petrographic and geochemical datasets. During the Variscan orogenesis the sediments were deposited in different kinds of basins along an active margin setting. Their deformation was studied in the Markstein area of the Southern Vosges and is presented here in detail. Some arguments favour a northward underthrusting of a narrow and oceanic pre-Upper Devonian back-arc basin beneath the crystalline units of the Central Vosges and Schwarzwald. Accretion of continental crust continued from the Upper Devonian to the late Lower Carboniferous along with a characteristical evolution of a deep marine retro-arc foreland basin. It has accumulated about 3500 m of turbidite sandstones, shales and conglomerates of volcano-plutonic origin, assembling now the Markstein Group in the Southern Vosges. \u0000 \u0000To the south of the Markstein Group, deep marine mud-rich turbidite systems and a shallowing-upward succession of fluvio-deltaic sediments filled in the Oderen Basin, which subsided in the late Tournaisian and early Visean. A subduction type volcanism occurred in form of tholeiitic basalts, K-calcalkaline island arc andesites and continental arc sandstones. In contrast to former models, a genetical relationship between the Markstein and the Oderen Group is rejected here. Instead, different subduction systems in space and time have caused the development of the active margin basins. \u0000 \u0000The Variscan deformation of the exposed sedimentary units started in the upper Visean. Structural analysis of kinematic indicators and macroscopic fabrics in the Markstein Group give evidence for thrusting and dextrally transpressive shearing, forming a positive flower structure along the southern border of the Central Vosges crystalline units. This was broadly synchronous with dextrally transpressive deformation along the Lalaye-Lubine/Baden Baden fault at the northern border of the Central Vosges and Schwarzwald and along the \"Transition Complex\" between the Central and the Southern Schwarzwald. The high-K-calcalkaline Metzeral granite intruded postkinematically into the principal displacement zone and has a position similar to the dextrally sheared Randgranite association along the northern border of the BLZ. A juxtaposition between the Oderen and the Markstein Groups was achieved in the upper Visean due to the dextral transpressive motion along the ESE-trending Markstein Fault. The exhumation of high grade metamorphic rocks of the Central Vosges and Schwarzwald during the upper Visean is discussed in the context of long lasting accretionary tectonics and the two-sided dextral transpression, favouring crustal extrusi","PeriodicalId":350090,"journal":{"name":"Geotectonic Research","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124340617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
