The Neotethyan oceanic Diamante-Terranova unit (DIATU; southern Apennines-Calabria-Peloritani Terrane system) includes basic rocks that during the Cenozoic were subducted and metamorphosed to lawsonite-blueschist facies conditions. Petrological and structural observations (both at the meso- and micr...
