Abstract
The crystalline basement of the Neogene depression of the Somogy—Drava Basin (SW-Transdanubia , Hungary) consists of medium-grade (almandine-amphibolite facies) polymetamorphic formation s overprinted by a very low- and low-grade (anchi-, epizonal) retrograde, partly cataclastic metamorphism: gneiss, mica schist, amphibolite, as well as mylonite and blastomylonite. Having applied the petrological and geochemical methods of lithofacies reconstruction the gneiss — mica schist and the mylonite — blastomylonite groups developed from them proved to be of sedimentary (pára) origin: they were formed from carbonate-free or carbonate-poor pelitic-psammitic sediments. Th e amphibolite originated from basic igneous rock. On the basis of the mineral-paragenetic, petrotextural and structural as well as geothermometric and geobarometric characteristics the following relative chronological succession of metaniorphic events was determined: A ) Th e oldest one is a medium-grade (almandine-amphibolite facies), medium pressure (Harrovian) regional metamorphism with a geothermal gradient of 17 to 27 °C/km. Its temperature and pressure were 510 to 600 °C and 5.9 to 8.9 kbar, respectively. It was locally followed by B) an andalusite-type (low pressure range) medium-grade (amphibolite facies) metamorphism with a gradient =-34 °C/km and by C) a low temperature (<45 0 °C), predominantly low pressure anchi-, epizonal retrograde, locally cataclastic metamorphism. As to our recent knowledge —• based on Alpine and Carpathian analogies — different hypothetic geochronological modells can be established, e. g. — A) Caledonian, B) Hercynian, C) Hercynian and/or Alpine: — A) older Hercynian, B) younger Hercynian and C) younger Hercynian and/or Alpine: — A) Dalslandian (Early Baikalian), B) Hercynian, C) Hercynian and/or Alpine. T h e mineral assemblages formed b y weathering and by low temperature retrograde metamorphism were distinguished by means of the clay mineral associations and by the illite crystallinity.
