The present-day configuration of the lithosphere in the eastern Alps and more broadly in the northern Adriatic zone, records a multistage geologic evolution that was active since Precambrian times. Major evolutionary events (e.g., ocean opening, collision, subduction, etc.) were marked by the emplacement of large quantities of magmatic products. In this paper we present an overview of the field, petrographic, and geochemical characteristics of the main plutonic and volcanic bodies outcropping in the northern Adriatic zone and spanning from Permian to Cainozoic. Geochemical and petrologic study of these igneous occurrences greatly helped unraveling the geologic history of this area.

Abstract
The present-day configuration of the lithosphere in the eastern Alps and more broadly in the northern Adriatic zone, records a multistage geologic evolution that was active since Precambrian times. Major evolutionary events (e.g., ocean opening, collision, subduction, etc.) were marked by the emplacement of large quantities of magmatic products. In this paper we present an overview of the field, petrographic, and geochemical characteristics of the main plutonic and volcanic bodies outcropping in the northern Adriatic zone and spanning from Permian to Cainozoic. Geochemical and petrologic study of these igneous occurrences greatly helped unraveling the geologic history of this area.Pubblicazioni consigliate
