“…1, Bonev, 2006b): (i) a lower high-grade basement unit of continental affinity composed of orthogneisses with Variscan protolith ages (Peytcheva and Quadt, 1995;Liati, 2005;Cornelius, 2008;Turpaud and Reischmann, 2010) having an origin mostly from a continental arc S-type granitoids (Bonev et al, 2010b), (ii) an upper lithologically heterogeneous (intercalated various gneisses, schists, amphibolites and marbles) high-grade basement unit of continental-oceanic affinity, enclosing lenses of metaophiolites and metamafic rocks of oceanic ridge and supra-subduction zone tholeiitic-boninitic signature (Kolcheva and Eskenazy, 1988;Mposkos et al, 1989;Haydoutov et al, 2004;Bonev et al, 2006c). The radiometric determinations of the metamafic rocks revealed Neoproterozoic (572 Ma) and latest Paleozoic protolith ages (288 Ma) and Variscan metamorphic ages (350-300 Ma) Bauer et al, 2007), while gneisses have Late Carboniferous and Late Jurassic igneous ages (Cornelius, 2008), (iii) a low-grade (i.e.…”
