This study presents a typical example of the complex exhumation process of deeply subducted continental rocks in orogenic belts. Through analyzing the structural and chronological data of the SNC in central Jamtland, Sweden, the study summarizes four stages of exhumation. This research is important for understanding the exhumation process of deeply subducted continental rocks in orogenic belts.
The diamond-bearing Seve Nappe Complex (SNC) in the Scandinavian Caledonides records subduction of continental margin rocks to (ultra)high-pressure conditions at mantle depths, and exhumation thereafter from beneath the hinterland to the Earth's surface in the foreland. Structural data of the Upper, Middle, and Lower SNC in central Jamtland, Sweden demonstrate a triclinic bulk deformation during the exhumation of the still ductile SNC from crustal levels where migmatites formed. Ar-40/Ar-39 data from the Upper SNC constrain the timing of cooling through 450-300 degrees C to be similar to 418 to 416 Ma. In combination with a review of the published pressure-temperature-time data and regional geology of the central Scandinavian Caledonides, four stages of exhumation of the central Jamtland SNC are summarized: (1) buoyancy-driven exhumation during similar to 455 to 433 Ma from ultrahigh-pressure depths to granulite-facies depths triggered by tectonic under-pressure; (2) tectonic exhumation in similar to 433 to 418 Ma at lower- to mid-crustal levels resulted from accretion of the Lower Koli Nappes onto Baltica; (3) eduction of the Western Gneiss Region lithosphere and piggyback transport of the SNC in similar to 418 to 375 Ma from hinterland to foreland, coupled with extensional faulting at mid- to upper-crustal levels; and (4) gravitational collapse- and erosion-driven exhumation following the end of the Scandian Orogeny at similar to 375 Ma. This multi-stage exhumation transported the SNC for > 100 km vertically from mantle depths to the Earth's surface and > 350 km horizontally from the Caledonian hinterland to the foreland. This contribution provides a typical example of the complex exhumation of deeply subducted continental rocks in orogenic belts.
