“…The HP metaophiolites exposed in the Urtier and nearby valleys belong to two units, namely, the Zermatt‐Saas and the Grivola‐Urtier units (Bocchio et al, ; Dal Piaz et al, ) (Figure a). The Zermatt‐Saas unit consists of serpentinites, metagabbros, metarodingites, and mafic rocks including Fe‐Cu ore bodies, calcschists, marbles, and metaradiolarites with Mn mineralization (Martin & Tartarotti, ; Tartarotti & Caucia, ; Fontana et al, ; Martin et al, ; Panseri et al, ; Tumiati et al, ; Tartarotti, Festa, et al, , Tartarotti, Martin, et al, ). The Grivola‐Urtier unit consists of flysch‐type and chaotic calcschists (including blocks and slices of mafic and gneissic rocks), metabasites, metagabbros, serpentinites, and meta‐ophicarbonates, enveloping metric to hectometric bodies of eclogite‐facies metagabbros, metarodingites, and chloriteschists.…”
