A new approach to explain the Western Hercynian Belt is given by a lithological and structural study of the StβGeorgesβsurβLoire Unit (southern part of the French Armorican Massif). This unit is interpreted as a Devonian olistostrome sheared to the North. It is formed in an accretionary prism linked

Early Palaeozoic bimodal riftβrelated magmatism is widespread throughout much of the Variscides of Europe. It is traceable from the Polish Sudetes to NW Iberia. Granitic plutonism generally predates CambroβOrdovician bimodal magmatism. In the N Bohemian Massif this early Palaeozoic granitic plutonis
