First report of an Ediacarian basement in the Western Alps: the Serre Chevalier crystalline unit (Briançonnais domain, France)

First report of an Ediacarian basement in the Western Alps: the Serre Chevalier crystalline unit (Briançonnais domain, France)

We report new LA-ICP-MS U-Pb zircon ages of varied crystalline rocks occurring in the Serre Chevalier crystalline terrain, an allochtonous basement unit located at the top of the Briançonnais nappes stack ∼5 km west of Briançon city. Mapped as an undifferentiated metasedimentary basement on the geol...
