The Addition of Felsic Sediments to the Lower Continental Crust During the Variscan Orogeny
Abstract Lower crustal metasedimentary xenoliths (garnet‐sillimanite granulites) from the Bournac breccia pipe in the Massif Central, France, provide a robust example of sediments transported to depth and incorporated into stable lower continental crust during a collisional orogeny. Dates for detrit...
