The Cenozoic Gharyan volcanic province (GVP) represents one of the four major igneous districts of Libya, spreading over an area of ~4,500 km2. Despite the location of GVP close to major population centres in northwest Tripoli, the number of studies on the origin of this magmatism is relatively limited. Here, we discuss whole-rock geochemical data and present a new mineral chemistry and a 40Ar/39Ar geochronology study of the basaltic rocks of GVP. The mineralogical and geochemical differences of the two types of basalts identified in literature, definedas “plateau” and “late” basalts cannot be related to fractional crystallisation of a common parent magma. The two groups of basaltic rocks are better interpreted as liquids generated from the same mantle source experiencing different degrees of partial melting, with the late-stage basalts representing lower degrees of melt extraction, without indication of crustal contamination. Trace element constraints support an origin from~2 to ~12% partial melting of a heterogeneous sub-lithospheric mantle close to the spinel-garnet transition at ~70-90 km depth.Trace elements and Sr-Nd isotopic compositions of the Gharyan basaltic rocks overlap the other Cenozoic volcanic rocks of central Libya (e.g., Al Haruj volcanic province) and southern Italy (e.g., Etna and Pantelleria), lacking the presence of the enriched mantle component identified in other North African Cenozoic basaltic provinces. The new high precision 40Ar/39Ar age determinations indicate roughly simultaneous eruption ages of the two basaltic lava series, mostly in the 5.4-3.8 Ma range, with plateau basalts being statistically slightly older than the late stage, but with a large overlap. The dating of a dyke to ~28 Ma indicates the presence of an older Oligocene volcanic phase, whose products have been almost entirely eroded. The youngest age reported in this study indicates that volcanic activity continued until latest Pliocene (2.67 Ma). The overlap of 40Ar/39Ar ages between “plateau” and“late” basalts indicates that the existence of two distinct volcanic phases should be reconsidered.

This study aims at refining the geological setting of the Fornovolasco area in the southern part of the Alpi Apuane (Northern Apennines, Italy). Due to the occurrence of Palaeozoic units of debated origin and age, its structural setting is the key for the comprehension of the evolution of the easternmost sector of the Alpi Apuane. In this context, we combined a 1:5,000 scale field survey with microfloristic and organic matter study, and petrographical and structural analysis. By means of this approach, we obtained the following results: (a) the “Fornovolasco schists” consists of two different lithostratigraphic units: (i) quartz-metasandstone with interbedded levels of graphitic metapelite, characterized by upper Cambrian (Miaolingian-Furongian) acritarch microflora and relatable to the Filladi inferiori Fm; (ii) graphitic metapelite, fine-grained metasandstone and metabreccia, with a well-preservedand diversified middle-upper Permian sporomorphs microflora, making it possible to correlate this unit with the Montignoso Formation. This evidence documents, for the first time, the occurrence of a post-Variscan Palaeozoic unit in the eastern Alpi Apuane.(b) The “Fornovolasco schists” hosts centimetre-thick tourmaline veins and a diffuse network of felsic sheet-like dyke plutonic bodies, supporting widespread magma intrusion associated with hydrothermal activities framed in the post-Variscan magmatism.(c) The studied area consists of three stacked first-order tectonic units: the Tuscan Nappe, Panie Unit, and Apuane Unit. These are characterized by superposed deformational structures of which development was assisted by low-to very-low-grade metamorphism developed during underplating and subsequent exhumation events.
