The Piolit, Pelat and Baiardo Upper Cretaceous flysch formations (western Alps): geodynamic implications at the time of the Pyrenean tectonic phases

Abstract: The Piolit, Pelat (French Alps) and Baiardo (Italian Maritime Alps) units contain Upper Cretaceous carbonate turbidites formations, with minor siliciclastic components. They are flysch formations, linked with the Pyrenean compressive events through their ages and their "subbriançonnais" structural position. Sedimentological, mineralogical (heavy minerals), and geochemical analysis, point to a potential "Pyrenean signature" which would testify the Late Cretaceous collision between the Ibero-Briançonnais terrane… Show more

“…These starved post-rift pelagic sediments record thermal subsidence. 291 However, some restricted extensional deformation is reported locally within the 292 Briançonnais area (Claudel & Dumont, 1999), as in Provence (Dardeau et al, 1988) (Thum et al, 2015), or Alpine forebulge 309 propagation (Michard & Martinotti, 2002). 310 Despite the metamorphic overprint, (litho)stratigraphic correlations between many 311 units presently included in the Internal Zones of the western Alpine arc remain possible.…”
