Description Geodynamic processes involving mantle and crust (continental and oceanic) deformation play a crucial role in the formation of known orogenic belts. Those processes have operated cyclically over the course of the Earth's history. From this standpoint our research group is focussed on the joint application of Petrochronology and Petrofabric techniques in order to cast light onto the following issues: 1. Study of the relationships among recrystallization, partial melting and geochronology in areas of tectonic reworking |
