Some major points to discussSome major points to discuss
environment responsible for generation of boninitic rocks in initial arc complex
vergency of subducting slab during oceanic arc growth
geotectonic environment of formation of Famennian calc-alkaline volcanics a eastern margin of Magnitogorsk Zone
structure development of the accretionary complex by
1. arc-continent docking
2. subsequent compression (hypercollision - wrench tectonics)
Some arguments against W-vergent subduction at eastern margin of Some arguments against W-vergent subduction at eastern margin of MOASMOAS
Southern Urals situation
mineral closing ages (garnet, sphene, phengite) in HP-rocks of subducted continental margin 380-370 Ma
requires presence of E-vergent subducted slab at western board of MOAS before 370 Ma
contemporaneous W-vergent subduction at eastern margin of MOAS (if feasible at all) should have resulted in strong extension in overriding plate – no signs for such extension

Modern examples W Pacific – no microcontinents involved in arc-continent collision
Timor subduction beneath NW Australian margin, Banda arc approaching island of Timor is emerged part of accretionary complex
Taiwan oblique arc-continent collisionaccretionary complex first to emerge in front of docking arc
Timor + Taiwan – shelfal sea between emerged accretionary complex and continental coastline- seastrait between emerged accretionary complex
and extinct arc
