“…Finally, widespread Ordovician granitic magmatism, which is seen in both the Alps and the extra-Alpine Variscides, deserves further attention. Although it is mainly of S-type to I/S transitional character (Schulz et al, 2004;Zurbriggen, 2015;René and Finger, 2016;Žak et al, 2023;Nievoll et al, 2022), some geologists working in the Alps have, understandably, related this igneous event to arc magmatism associated with Cenerian subduction and slab roll-back (Siegesmund et al, 2023). However, similar felsic magmatism of the same age also occurs in equal intensity in the CADO, where no Ordovician subduction activities are documented.…”
