The core of the Greater Himalayan Sequence in the Mugu-Karnali area (Western Nepal) is affected by a thick shear zone with development of nearly 4km of mylonites (Mangri shear zone). It is a contractional shear zone showing a top-to-the-SW and WSW sense of shear. The shear zone developed during the decompression, in the sillimanite stability field, of rocks that previously underwent relatively high-pressure...
In order to address the question of strain localization within continental units during subduction and exhumation, a large-scale portion of an exhumed continental crust was structurally revisited. The Tenda massif (Alpine Corsica) has recorded burial (D1; top-to-the-SW kinematics) down to blueschist-facies conditions followed by exhumation (D2; top-to-the-NE kinematics). It was so far regarded as...
