“…Both sections of the Kibaran Belt contain at least two metasedimentary successions, the oldest of which was intruded by S-type granitoids in the north and by intermediate-felsic I-type plutons in the south both of which are dated between 1.38 and 1.37 Ga (Tack et al, 2002;Kokonyangi et al, 2004a). In the Kibaran Belt s.s. this magmatic phase has been linked to supra-subduction magmatism (Kokonyangi et al, 2004a(Kokonyangi et al, ,b, 2005(Kokonyangi et al, , 2006 while in the NE Kibaran Belt this magmatic/thermal event has been linked to extensional detachment/collapse based on the noted absence of a compressional phase in the structural record (Klerkx, 1987;Klerkx et al, 1993;Fernandez-Alonso and Theunissen, 1998). A second tectonic event affected both sedimentary successions, and is recorded in the Kibaran Belt s.s., with P-T conditions of 740-780 • C and 6.0-6.5 kbar (Kokonyangi et al, 2004a).…”
