Geology of the southern Dora-Maira Massif: insights from a sector with mixed ophiolitic and continental rocks (Valmala tectonic unit, Western Alps)

In the Valmala sector of the southern Dora Maira Massif (Western Alps), two different eclogite- and blueschist-facies units (i.e. the Rocca Solei and Dronero units, respectively), are separated by a shear zone (i.e. the Valmala Tectonic Unit), which peculiarly consists of mixed slices of ophiolitic...
