Post-Hercynian ultrahigh-temperature tectono-metamorphic evolution of the Middle Atlas lower crust (central Morocco) revealed by metapelitic granulite xenoliths by A. El Maz, A. Vauchez, J.-M. Dautria

“…During this eruption, the studied granulites were entrapped in the ascending lava and very quickly transferred up to the surface, triggering the formation of small vesicular glass pockets. This study highlights the contrasted post-Hercynian evolution of the lower crust in the northern coastal alpine orogen (Rif) and the Tabular Middle Atlas; the first one underwent a tectonic exhumation without reheating during the Alpine orogeny, while the second one is characterized by a reheating to ultrahigh temperature, probably during the pre-alpine rifting, but was probably not or only slightly affected by the alpine events.…”
