Archean protoliths within early Proterozoic granulitic crust of the West European Hercynian Belt; possible relics of the West African Craton

Two major events of crustal growth and high-grade metamorphism were suggested by U-Pb and Sm-Nd studies of four granulites from the Bay of Biscay, Spain. The first is Archaean (2700 m.y.) and the second, early Proterozoic (1900 m.y.). The 2700 m.y. orthogneiss protolith age from this area is the fir...

description Two major events of crustal growth and high-grade metamorphism were suggested by U-Pb and Sm-Nd studies of four granulites from the Bay of Biscay, Spain. The first is Archaean (2700 m.y.) and the second, early Proterozoic (1900 m.y.). The 2700 m.y. orthogneiss protolith age from this area is the first direct evidence of Archaean crust involved in the Hercynian belt. Major events at 2700, 1800 and 600 m.y. in the Hercynian belt suggest that European Precambrian microplate(s) were part of the west African craton, where the same sequence of events is observed.
