Space and time in the tectonic evolution of the northwestern Iberian Massif: Implications for the Variscan belt
José R. Martínez Catalán,Ricardo Arenas,Florentino Díaz García,Pablo González Cuadra,Juan Gómez-Barreiro,Jacobo Abati,Pedro Castiñeiras,Javier Fernández-Suárez,Sonia Sánchez Martínez,Pilar Andonaegui,Emilio González Clavijo,Alejandro Díez Montes,Francisco J. Rubio Pascual,Beatriz Valle Aguado +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a synthesis of the tectonic evolution that places the autochthonous is presented, using geochemical studies of igneous rocks, isotopic age data for magmatism and metamorphism, quantitative pressure-temperature (P-T) estimates of metamorphic evolution, and structural geology in the northwestern Iberian Massif.
Journal ArticleDOI
A rootless suture and the loss of the roots of a mountain chain: The Variscan belt of NW Iberia
José R. Martínez Catalán,Ricardo Arenas,Jacobo Abati,Sonia Sánchez Martínez,Florentino Díaz García,Javier Fernández Suárez,Pablo González Cuadra,Pedro Castiñeiras,Juan Gómez Barreiro,Alejandro Díez Montes,Emilio González Clavijo,Francisco J. Rubio Pascual,Pilar Andonaegui,Teresa Jeffries,James E. Alcock,Rubén Díez Fernández,Alicia López Carmona +16 more
TL;DR: Ophiolites of different Paleozoic ages occur in North-West (NW) Iberia in a rootless suture representing the remnants of the Rheic Ocean.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlation of the nappe stack in the Ibero-Armorican arc across the Bay of Biscay: a joint French–Spanish project
Michel Ballèvre,José R. Martínez Catalán,Alicia López-Carmona,Pavel Pitra,Jacobo Abati,Rubén Díez Fernández,Céline Ducassou,Ricardo Arenas,Valérie Bosse,Pedro Castiñeiras,Javier Fernández-Suárez,Juan Gómez Barreiro,Jean-Louis Paquette,Jean-Jacques Peucat,Marc Poujol,Gilles Ruffet,Sonia Sánchez Martínez +16 more
TL;DR: In this article, a correlation between allochthonous units exposed in the NW Iberian Massif and the southern Armorican Massif is carried out based on lithological associations, structural position, age and geochemistry of protoliths and tectonometamorphic evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
U–Pb zircon ages (SHRIMP) for Cadomian and Early Ordovician magmatism in the Eastern Pyrenees: New insights into the pre-Variscan evolution of the northern Gondwana margin
Pedro Castiñeiras,Pedro Castiñeiras,Marina Navidad,Montserrat Liesa,Jordi Carreras,Josep Maria Casas +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, geochronological data from low-to medium-grade metamorphic areas of the Eastern Pyrenees (Canigo, Roc de Frausa and Cap de Creus massifs) confirm the presence of two significant pre-Variscan igneous events: Ediacaran-Early Cambrian and Early Ordovician.
Book ChapterDOI
Tectonic evolution of the upper allochthon of the Órdenes complex (northwestern Iberian Massif): Structural constraints to a polyorogenic peri-Gondwanan terrane
Juan Gómez Barreiro,José R. Martínez Catalán,Ricardo Arenas,Pedro Castiñeiras,Jacobo Abati,Florentino Díaz García,Jan R. Wijbrans +6 more
TL;DR: The upper allochthon of northwest Iberia represents the most exotic terrane of this part of the European Variscan belt and has been integrated into a synthesis of its tectonic evolution, constraining the main tectonothermal events as mentioned in this paper.
