To follow my previous post, few images about the tectonics of the Mont Blanc in the western Alps . No need for a lot of words, just look to the sketches I use to teach tectonics in the field and enjoy the images. At the end of the post you'll find a link to a related paper in Tectonics I co-authored.
To allow comparison between hand-drawn simplified sketches and a scientific paper's figure, the Mont-Blanc structural cross-section taken from the paper Leloup et al. 2005 in Tectonics.
