Description

Description

Das Bajuvarikum als der nordwestlichste, und für diese Arbeit interessante Teil

der Nördlichen Kalkalpen besteht aus der höheren Lechtal-Decke (oberes Bajuvarikum) und der tieferen Allgäu-Decke (unteres Bajuvarikum, FAUPL & WAGREICH 2000).

Géographie

Extension géographique
Die bajuvarischen Decken der Nördlichen Kalkalpen lassen sich nach W bis ins Rätikon verfolgen, wo sie in Form von nach W aushebenden antiklinalen Halbfenstern und synklinalen Halbklippen enden (Eisbacher & Brandner 1995).

p.91: A nappe stack consisting exclusively of sedimentary rocks, ranging from the Permian to the Late Cretaceous, occupies the entire northern part of the Austroalpine in the Northern Calcareous Alps. These were detached from their crystalline basement during the Late Cretaceous, as inferred from synorogenic Cretaceous deposits (Ortner & Kilian 2022). They were affected by top-NW thrusting in the Cretaceous (Hauterivian to Turonian, Ortner & Kilian 2022), followed by top-N thrusting in the Cenozoic. This led to a complicated internal structure. From bottom to top these nappes were classically grouped into Bajuvaric, Tirolic-Noric and Juvavic nappe systems, a concept that is presently under discussion (Ortner & Kilian 2022). In the area of the Tectonic Map of Switzerland, from bottom to top, the Cenoman-Randschuppe, the Allgäu Nappe and the Lechtal Nappe belong to the Bajuvaric Nappe System, the Inntal Nappe and the Krabachjoch Nappe to the Tirolic-Noric Nappe System.

    En bref

    The Lechtal Nappe is the upper tectonic unit of the Bajuvaric Nappe System (Upper Austroalpine) in the Northern Calcareous Alps. Its stratigraphic sequence is characterised by thick and widespread Jurassic and Cretaceous basin sediments, as well as local shallow sediments («Zürser Schwelle»).

    In the northern Rätikon mountain range, between Austria, Liechtenstein and Switzerland, it is intersected by out-of-sequence thrust faults, which divided it into several slices (Schesaplana, Gorfion, Augstenberg, Ochsenkopf, Heubühl and Drei Schwestern slices) and also lead to the exposure of isolated lenses of the Arosa Zone. The «Northern Mittagspitz Zone», in the eastern Rätikon, and the Madrisa Slice, which is isolated north of Klosters between the Silvretta Nappe above and the Upper Penninic Arosa Zone below, are considered to be inverted slivers derived from the Lechtal Nappe.
