The Texel-Schneeberg boundary in the Pfossen valley (Merano, NE Italy): geological-structural map and explanatory notes

Auteur :
ZANCHETTA, S.

Description :
The Schneeberg Complex (Merano, NE Italy) was traditionally distinguished from the surrounding Austroalpine basement on the base of its peculiar lithological association made of garnet-rich metapelites, calc-schists, paragonite amphibolites and garnet-amphibole schists, locally with megablasts of garnet and amphibole. As the Schneeberg Complex is considered to be a monometamorphic unit with Alpine metamorphism only, its southern boundary with the polymetemorphic Texel Complex is a key-element in deciphering the tectono-metamorphic evolution of the Austroalpine basement in the western sector of the Eastern Alps. - (NF)
