The Cycladic Blueschist Unit of the Hellenic subduction orogen: Protracted high-pressure metamorphism, decompression and reimbrication of a diachronous nappe stack

Johannes Glodny et al.

Summary: This study discusses the assembly and tectonochronology of the Cycladic Blueschist Unit (CBU) in the central Aegean Sea region, Greece. Based on geochronologic data from the Cycladic islands of Tinos, Syros and Sifnos, the authors propose that the CBU is a composite, subduction-related stack of nappes. They find that the nappes were sequentially accreted between -55 and -30 Ma and each nappe was exhumed and experienced greenschist-facies overprinting. The authors also suggest that the under thrusting of the External Hellenides during the early Oligocene caused significant shortening and out-of-sequence thrusting.

The Jurassic meta-ophiolitic rocks of Cape Steno, Andros, Greece: a high-pressure/low-temperature melange with Pelagonian affinity in the Cycladic Blueschist Unit?

Melina Hoehn et al.

Summary: This study aims to clarify the relationship between the Cape Steno melange in southern Andros and the main tectonic units of the Attic-Cycladic Crystalline Belt. The results suggest a Pelagonian affinity and the presence of a high-pressure metamorphic overprint. This study provides new insights into the geological and tectono-metamorphic evolution of the Cape Steno occurrence.
