Book cover Pre-Permian Geology of Central and Eastern Europe

Part of the book series: IGCP-Project 233 ((IGCP 233))

Abstract

The Moldanubian Zone of the Bohemian Massif represents a major crystalline segment within the eastern part of the mid-Paleozoic Variscan fold-belt. It adjoins with the Saxo-Thuringicum to the NW, with the Bohemicum to the N, and with the Moravo-Silesian Zone to the E. The continuation of the Moldanubian Zone to the S and SW is covered by post-Variscan platform sediments.
