- Abstract
- The Apennine Range is a young convergent orogen that formed over a retreating subduction zone.
The Alpi Apuane massif in the northern Apennines exposes synorogenic metamorphic rocks, and provides
information about exhumation processes associated with accretion and retreat. (U-Th)/He and fission-track
ages on zircon and apatite are used to resolve exhumational histories for the Apuane metamorphic
rocks and the structurally overlying, very low grade Macigno Formation. Stratigraphic, metamorphic, and
thermochronologic data indicate that the Apuane rocks were structurally buried to 15-30 km and !400!C at
about 20 Ma. Exhumation to 240!C and 9 km depth (below sea level) occurred at 10-13 Ma. By 5 Ma the
Apuane rocks were exhumed to 70!C and !2 km. The Macigno and associated Tuscan nappe were also
structurally buried and the Macigno reached its maximum depth of 7 km at !15 to 20 Ma.
Stratigraphic evidence indicates that the Apennine wedge was submarine at this time. Thus we infer that
initial exhumation of the Apuane was coeval with tectonic thickening higher in the wedge, as indicated
by synchronous structural burial of the Tuscan nappe.
From 6 to 4 Ma, thinning at shallow depth is indicated
by continued differential exhumation between the
Apuane and the Tuscan nappe at high rates. After 4
Ma, differential exhumation ceased and the Apuane
and the Tuscan nappe were exhumed at similar
rates (!0.8 km/Ma), which we attribute to erosion of
the Apennines, following their emergence above
sea level. (literal)
