"The Mittaghorn zone , which is composed of garnet and muscovite bearing schists, quartzites and calcareous and dolomitic marbles. This zone is surrounded by the meta-sediments of the Zermatt-Saas Fee zone. Several interpretations are possible: first, the meta-sediments of this zone are part of the meta-sediments of the Zermatt-Saas Fee zone, which makes the Mittaghorn zone a part of the Zermatt-Saas Fee zone. Second, the meta-sediments of the Mittaghorn zone are part of a fold of the Gornergrat nappe into the bundnerschiefer of the Zermatt-Saas Fee zone. Third, the Mittaghorn zone is a distinct tectonic zone."
