Resumen:
|
Within the Variscan Orogen, Early Devonian and Late Devonian high?P belts separated by mid?Devonian ophiolites can be interpreted as having formed in a single subduction zone. Early Devonian convergence nucleated a Laurussia?dipping subduction zone from an inherited lithospheric neck (peri?Gondwanan Cambrian back?arc). Slab?retreat induced upper plate extension, mantle incursion and lower plate thermal softening, favouring slab?detachment within the lower plate and diapiric exhumation of deep?seated rocks through the overlying mantle up to relaminate the upper plate. Upper plate extension produced mid?Devonian suprasubduction ocean floor spreading (Devonian ophiolites), while further convergence resulted in plate coupling and intraoceanic ophiolite imbrication. Accretion of the remaining Cambrian ocean heralded Late Devonian subduction of inner sections of Gondwana across the same subduction zone and the underthrusting of mainland Gondwana (culmination of NW Iberian allochthonous pile). Oblique convergence favoured lateral plate sliding, and explained the different lateral positions along Gondwana of terranes separated by Palaeozoic ophiolites.
