- W2022943411 abstract "In the southeastern Oman Mountains, the Saih Hatat tectonic window reveals Arabian continental material beneath the oceanic (sensu. lato) nappes i.e., the Hawasina sedimentary units and the huge Sumail ophiolite. The northeastern (internal) half of the window suffered an intense deformation associated with a high-pressure, low-temperature (HP-LT) metamorphism, approximately dated at 80-75 Ma according to the available stratigraphie data. After the deformation, due to the absence of collision, the obduction-inherited structural and metamorphic pattern was virtually unmodified. A metamorphic map is established based on mineral assemblages in metapelites and metabasites. Low-grade assemblages occur in the highest units (Muscat nappes, Quryat unit). Characteristic minerals are FeMg carpholite (± lawsonite) associated with kaolinite or pyrophyllite and locally sudoite in the metapelites while lawsonite and blue amphiboles are found in the metabasites. High-grade rocks outcrop in the deepest and easternmost units (As Sifah antiform) and are typified by an epidote-glaucophane-bearing eclogite assemblage. Intermediate units (Hulw) show assemblages of intermediate grade (chloritoid schists and glaucophane-bearing metabasites). Higher grade assemblages such as talc-chloritoid were not found. Inverted gradients are observed locally in the Muscat nappes (pyrophyllitebearing units above kaolinite-quartz-bearing units) and these are ascribed to late metamorphic thrust displacements which are demonstrated by microstructures. A complex P-T evolution is fairly well documented by the mineral assemblages. Prograde evolution in the subophiolitic (continental rocks) began with a rather “hot” gradient of about 30°–35°C/km (with chloritoid growth in the higher units). Thereafter pressure increased with the temperature remaining constant or even decreasing (chloritoid replaced by kaolinite + oxides and carpholite growth) in synkinematic conditions. The peak P-T conditions are close to 8 kbar, 270°C for the Muscat nappes and 11 kbar, 400°C for the As Sifah unit. The corresponding surface-related gradient is low (10°–15°C/km). During the retrograde evolution, pressure and temperature generally decreased concomitantly, but in some of the upper units temperature remained constant or increased slightly for some time, at which point sudoite growth from carpholite took place. The metamorphic pattern and mineral evolution are interpreted in the framework of the Late Cretaceous obduction. The already cold oceanic lithosphere was thrust upon a relatively hot thinned passive margin (with coeval basaltic volcanism). Pressure progressively increased in the passive margin due to the wedge shape of the advancing ophiolite, the maximum thickness of which was about 25 km in the As Sifah area. In this area, the overburden was also attributable to the accumulation of continental material (up to 5 km thick) by means of a complex set of synmetamorphic, often conjugated folds and thrusts. The basal peridotites of the obducted slab were probably not hotter than 300° C during its thrusting upon the continental margin. The temperature of the tectonic pile below the ophiolite remained low because it was thrust above more external and still colder continental areas. Late thrusting in the same southerly direction controlled the retrograde evolution, together with erosional and gravity-driven tectonic unloading." @default.
