  • The Volcanic Region of Auvergne
    THE VOLCANIC REGION OF AUVERGNE. By CANON T. G. BOKNEY, D.Se., LL.D.. F.R.S., etc., late Professor of Geology in University College, London. (Read July stll, 190L) UVERGNE, SO far as my experience goes, is the most A interesting region in France, if not in Europe. It can teach the geological student more about the natural history of volcanoes than the Eifel, or even than the neighbourhood of Naples, though not a single vent is now in action. Impressive as Vesuvius must be during an eruption, we have then to con­ template it from a respectful distance, so that, although I would gladly have witnessed this, I probably learnt more from being able to stand on the crater rim. Auvergne offers to our examination a wonderful series of preparations, the handiwork of nature, illustrative of the anatomy of a volcano, from crater-cones as perfect as that of Monte Nuovo to ruins as complete as those on the Fifeshire coast. These will principally attract your attention during your visit, but they do not exhaust the geological interests of the region. The volcanic cones rise from a great upland plateau-a huge insular mass of ancient, and to a large extent, crystalline rocks­ surrounded by Secondary and later strata. Depressions in this plateau were occupied towards the middle of the Tertiary era by extensive lakes, which were gradually filled up by beds of sand­ stone, marls and freshwater limestones, the earlier of which are contemporaneous with the Headon, Bembridge and Hamstead beds of our country. You will frequently come across sections of them, especially on the western flank of the broad valley of the Allier, sealed up sometimes under sheets of basalt.

  • The Iberian Variscan Orogen
    CHAPTER 1 THE IBERIAN VARISCAN OROGEN Aerial view of the tectonic repetition of limestone beds in the Láncara Formation, Primajas duplex structure of the Esla thrust (photo by J.L. Alonso) Martínez Catalán, J.R. Aller, J. Alonso, J.L. Bastida, F. Rocks of Upper Proterozoic to Carboniferous age - forming the Variscan or Hercynian orogen - crop out widely in the western part of the Iberian Peninsula, in what is called the Iberian or Hesperian Massif. These deformed rocks, often metamorphosed and intruded by different types of granitoids, were witness to the great mountain range formed in the late Paleozoic, basically in the Late Devonian and Carboniferous (between 370 and 290 million years ago), by the convergence and collision of two major continents: Laurasia and Gondwana. The Iberian Massif constitutes a geological framework of global interest. It is unique due to the continuity of its exposures and because it displays excellent records allowing the analysis of continental crust features, the tectonic, metamorphic and magmatic evolution of orogens, and therefore provides enormously relevant data about the lithospheric dynamics during the latest Precambrian and the Paleozoic. The Variscan orogen forms the basement of the Figure 1. Scheme showing the position of the Iberian Iberian Peninsula and of most of western and central Peninsula in relation to the Appalachians and the Europe. A crustal basement is the result of an orog- Caledonian and Variscan belts.

For an amazing “volcanic trip” to the heart of France, one must visit and tour the magnificent departments of Cantal and Puy de Dôme. These departments host what it was the largest volcano in Europe and the famous Chaîne des Puys, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The word “puy” (UK : 'pwi) comes from the Latin podium, and means “height” or “hill” (Godard, 2013). Both the Cantal volcano and the Chaîne des Puys are located in the French Central Massif. Chaîne des Puys France French Central Massif Cantal Clermont Ferrand The French Central Massif and location of the Chaîne des Puys and Cantal. Images1,2. Without even mentioning the geology (in general), or the volcanoes (in particular), the Auvergne region is internationally recognized for many reasons, its landscapes with impressive peaks, valleys, ravines, forests, lakes, dormant volcanoes (although as in the Little Prince, by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: you never know ...) and so on, its remarkable religious (Romanesque and Gothic) and military architectural heritage (countless castles and fortresses), and also, why not, for its gastronomy (after all is France, isnt’it?).

    Large scale Variscan granitoid intrusion throughout Europe: a lateral geochronological trend? K. Oud BSc Thesis, Faculty of Earth Sciences, Utrecht University, July 2006 Abstract Large-scale granitoid intrusion during the Variscan orogeny (370 to 250 Ma) in Europe above subduction zones of that time is assumed to be the result of a heat pulse due to slab detachment. This would show from a lateral trend in age of emplacement of all granitic bodies, migrating through the complete Variscan fold belt, and thus, a younging direction perpendicular to the former subduction zones. To test this, an inventory of intrusion ages (on the basis of U-Pb, Rb-Sr and K-Ar analysis), typology (I- or S-type) and location of 70 granitic bodies in the European Variscan fold belt, from the Armorican Massif to the Bohemian Massif, was made. From the collected data, no lateral trend in age is observed. However, a trend in age parallel to former subduction zones is shown in most massifs, with a younging direction towards the thrusting vergence. This is probably the result of nappe stacking. In the Armorican Massif and Massif Central, granites are all S-type, which is probably the cause of continental subduction. In central Europe, the typology is mixed S- and I-type, which can be caused by subduction of either continental or oceanic lithosphere. 1. Introduction result of the ‘usual’ heat and melt generation attributed to subduction The Variscan orogeny yielded a large processes. However, there is another number of granitoid intrusions throughout possibility of granite emplacement that all of the European Variscides.
