“…In the Alps, rocks deeply involved in the subduction complex and recording P‐T conditions compatible with blueschist and eclogite metamorphic facies can be observed in the axial zone of the chain, and generally show heterogeneous deformation with dominant tectonitic or mylonitic fabrics (e.g., Gasco et al., 2011; Lardeaux, 2014a; Malatesta et al., 2012; Oberhänsli & Goffé, 2004; Roda et al., 2021; Zucali et al., 2020). These rocks are often associated with serpentinites (e.g., Assanelli et al., 2020; Gasco et al., 2011; Lardeaux, 2014a; Malatesta et al., 2012; Manzotti et al., 2014; Roda et al., 2020), which have a crucial role in exhumation mechanisms (Gerya et al., 2002; Guillot et al., 2009; Luoni et al., 2020; Meda et al., 2010; Roda et al., 2012; Schwartz et al., 2001; Tamblyn et al., 2020; Warren et al., 2008; Yamato et al., 2007). Differently, Alpine HP metamorphism has not been recorded by rocks from the external domains of the Alps, which generally show a lower amount of finite deformation under P‐T conditions compatible with zeolite, prehnite‐pumpellyite, greenschist and epidote‐amphibolite metamorphic facies (e.g., Handy & Oberhänsli, 2004; Lardeaux, 2014a).…”
