Deutsch: Glanzschiefer der Avers-Decke Français: Schistes lustrés de la Nappe de l'Avers Italiano: Calcescisti della Falda del Avers English: Schists of the Avers Nappe
Der Hauptteil der «Averser Bündnerschiefer» besteht aus Kalkglimmerschiefer mit Sandstein-, Tonschiefer- und dolomitischen Feinbrekzien-Lagen.
Deutsch: San-Giorgio-Schuppe Français: Écaille de San Giorgio Italiano: Scaglia di San Giorgio English: San Giorgio Slice
The San Giorgio Slice, located in the Valle Leventina, is a small tectonic unit of the Eastern Lepontic (Ticino Culmination) similar to the Soja Nappe. It consists of a crystalline basement (micaschists with metaconglomerate layers) and its Triassic sedimentary cover.
Deutsch: Pierre-Avoi-Schuppe Français: Écaille de la Pierre Avoi Italiano: Scaglia della Pierre Avoi English: Pierre Avoi Slice
The Pierre Avoi Slice forms the internal part of the Sion-Courmayeur Nappe, above the Roignais-Versoyen Slice. It consists of a Paleogene mélange zone, whose material mostly comes from the overlying Zone Houillère as a result of early erosion.

St-Léonard), Pierre Avoi Slice (TK500, Gouffon et al. 2024)
Within the S-charl-Sesvenna Nappe, the “S-charl-Unterbau” forms a series of NE–SW trending series of synclines and anticlines that affect both basement and cover without major detachments within the sedimentary sequence (Verrucano, Raibl snd Hauptdolomit Group).
Deutsch: Ballino-Störung Français: Faille de Ballino Italiano: Faglia di Ballino English: Ballino Fault
The Ballino Fault is an important N–S trending transfer fault north of Lago di Garda. It is a reactivated and inverted Mesozoic extensional fault which coincides with the facies change between the Mesozoic Lombardian Basin and the Trento Plateau.
Deutsch: Gérignoz–La-Roche-Schuppe Français: Écaille du Gérignoz–La Roche Italiano: Scaglia del Gérignoz–La Roche English: Gérignoz–La Roche Slice
The Gérignoz–La Roche Slice is the frontal slice of the Subalpine Molasse in the Fribourg region. It is composed of a tectonised series («Couches du Gérignoz») more or less equivalent to (or transitional between) «Molasse Rouge» and «Molasse à Charbon».
Deutsch: Champotey–Ramsera-Schuppe Français: Écaille de Champotey–Ramsera Italiano: Scaglia di Champotey–Ramsera English: Champotey–Ramsera Slice
The Champotey–Ramsera Slice is a tectonic unit of the Subalpine Molasse in the Bulle/Gruyère region, comprised between the Vaulruz Slice (below) and the La Pattaz - La Holena Slice (above). It is composed of Lower Marine Molasse (UMM).
Deutsch: Villarvolard-Schuppe Français: Écaille de Villarvolard Italiano: Scaglia di Villarvolard English: Villarvolard Slice
The Villarvolard Slice is the southernmost (most internal) tectonic unit of the Subalpine Molasse of Western Switzerland (between the Léman and the Berra regions). It is composed of basal Lower Marine Molasse (UMM, transitional from the – originally underlying – flysch facies).
The Lower Penninic tectonic units are derived paleogeographically from the Cretaceous-Paleogene Valaisan Ocean. The remains of this basin are now at the base of the Penninic nappe stack and were overthrust by units that were originally deposited further south.
