  • The Anatomy of the Basal Shear Zone of the High- Pressure Adula Nappe and Its Repercussion on the Alpine Regional Geology

Within such deformational regime the lithological units are stretched and elongated along the shear direction, locally loosing their lateral continuity. The missing continuity of marker horizons or diagnostic rocktypes challenges the large-scale geological mapping and sometimes causes misleading regional interpretations. Here, we present detailed geological maps and profiles (scale 1:10’000) along the shear zone of the lower boundary of Adula unit, the largest High-Pressure nappe of the Central Alps. Overall, the lithological units along this shear zone show a sub-horizontal penetrative foliation (at amphibolite metamorphic facies) parallel to the lithological contacts that dip gently E to the SE. On the foliation plane the mineral and stretching lineation and the fold axis are oriented almost N-S independently on the orientation of the schistosity.
