“…There, latest Middle Miocene to Late Miocene exhumation and unroofing of ~ 4 km has led to the exposure of crystalline basement [ Zattin et al ., ; Heberer et al ., ]. In contrast, apatite fission track ages to the north and immediately to the west of the Valsugana thrust are Mesozoic [ Zattin et al ., ; Emmerich et al ., ; Heberer et al ., ], corroborating that overall exhumation throughout most of the ESA is minor [ Emmerich et al ., ; Zattin et al ., ] (Figure d). Thin‐skinned tectonic shortening with fault‐propagation folding and fault‐bend folding prograded southward in the ESA, producing a pronounced relief, e.g., of 1200 m above the plain along the SE verging Bassano‐Valdobbiadene thrust [ Galadini et al ., ] (Figure ).…”
