Tectonic structures related to thrusting of ophiolitic complexes: the White Hills Peridotite, Newfoundland
The White Hills Peridotite and its underlying metamorphic rocks represent the basal portion of a partly eroded ophiolitic complex. At the contact with the metamorphic rocks, the peridotites display low-temperature–high-stress mylonitic textures, which grade upwards to fine-grained porphyroclastic te...
