Carbonatitic dykes during Pangaea transtension (Pelagonian Zone, Greece)

From 300 to 175 Ma the ɛNd of the Pelagonian magmatism rose irregularly to more primitive values attesting to a higher increment of asthenosphere-derived melts. In this context, the carbonatite formed within a transtensional regime of an intra-Pangaea dextral transform fault that signalled the forthcoming penetrating breakoff of the supercontinent, manifested in the Permo-Triassic.
