Un occhio sul Paradisio : burial and exhumation of crustal-scale slices in the Western Alps

Michel Ballèvre (1)

1 GR - Géosciences Rennes

He has worked mainly on the Alpine and Variscan belts, and visited much older orogenic belts in India, Australia, China and Congo. His main interest is to approach large-scale tectonic processes with the eye of the petrologist, recognizing that the change of scale from thin section to metamorphic maps is the best way for deciphering the history of subduction/collision belts. The crest between the Gran Paradiso and the Grivola exposes one of the major tectonic boundaries in the Western Alps, namely the oceanic units on top of the continental margin
