Most of the lower succession consists of interbedded greenish-grey/dark grey/black mudstone layers, 2–20 cm thick, and recessive limestone beds, ∼5–20 cm thick (Figure 8d). Many limestone beds are nodular and massive limestone also forms mappable lenses up to 250 m thick. In the absence of associated breccias and indicators of discordance, these are interpreted as probably allodapic limestone and shelf bioherms, respectively. Much of the limestone and mudstone is weakly to locally strongly contact metamorphosed; limestone has recrystallised to form fine- to medium-grained granoblastic marble. Cramsie et al. (1978) referred to the non-carbonate layers interbedded with the limestones as ‘tuffs’ but we have found no evidence that they are of volcanic origin. Limestones are locally fossiliferous containing crinoids, tabulate corals, pentamerid brachiopods, stromatoporoids and bryozoans (Pickett, 1982; Sherwin, 1968). The fossil faunas are poorly preserved in the unit and only a general Silurian age (probably Wenlock to Ludlow) has been determined (Colquhoun et al., 2012). Quartzose sandstone occurs on the western side of the quartz porphyry intrusion east of upper Limestone Creek (Smsm, Figure 4). Skarns occur locally near intrusions (Figure 4) and include zoned skarn with an outer layer of wollastonite and an inner layer of wollastonite and vesuvianite. Massive skarns contain grossular-rich garnet, epidote, wollastonite, and vesuvianite and minor altered plagioclase.
Timing of deformation, metamorphism and leucogranite intrusion in the lower part of the Seve Nappe Complex in central Jämtland, Swedish Caledonides

The upper 500 m of the Åreskutan mountain (Fig. 2) comprise a well exposed klippe of garnetiferous paragneisses and migmatites of the Åreskutan Nappe (Arnbom 1980) that have recently yielded evidence of UHPM metamorphism, with the presence of microdiamonds (Klonowska et al. 2017). A major shear zone separates these high grade rocks from underlying, lower grade psammitic metasedimentary rocks and amphibolites (Fig. 2) that are less well exposed and have provided the location of the COSC-1 drillhole. These lower parts of the SNC (the Lower Seve Nappes) include at least two thrust sheets, the main unit being referred to as the Fröå-Bjelke Nappe (Helfrich 1967), or the Kall Nappe (Yngström 1969). These authors recognized a basal part dominated by amphibolites and quartzites, passing up into more varied, often calcareous paragneisses, marbles and psammites. Amphibolitized dolerites and gabbros, and minor leucogranites have been recognized in these host rocks; locally, also ultramafic rocks. A sheet of granitic gneisses occurs in the basal part of the SNC in central Jämtland (Strömberg & Karis 1984), possibly of similar age as an orthogneiss at a comparable tectonostratigraphic level in Västerbotten dated to c. 1645 Ma (Zachrisson et al. 1996). Metamorphism appears not to have exceeded amphibolite facies (Arnbom 1980), with grossular, vesuvianite and wollastonite in the calcareous paragneisses. The presence of almandine and staurolite (kyanite reported, but not confirmed) in subordinate more pelitic gneisses suggests the possibility of a somewhat higher pressure history, but nothing comparable with that in the overthrust Åreskutan Nappe. Greenschist facies retrogression is widespread, particularly in shear zones.
