Abstract
null null New SHRIMP U-Pb geochronogical data on detrital zircons from the South Portuguese Zone (SPZ) in SW Iberia and the Sehoul Block in northwest Morocco are provided, aimed at deciphering the presumed Avalonian affinity of these two regions. Despite the limitation imposed by the absence of Ordovician-Silurian rocks in outcrop, indirect support for an Avalonian affinity comes from the presence of Mesoproterozoic (≈ 1 and 1.3–1.7 Ga) and...
