The British sector of the Caledonide-Appalachian fold belt, which bridges the Iapetus plate closure zone, has a range of plutonic, volcanic and volcaniclastic lithologies with characteristic space-time variations. The map of Caledonian igneous rocks in the British Isles (Plate 1) is compiled from many sources, some of which predate the use of methods of classification which are based largely on chemical data. In such cases, whilst extensive re-mapping continues, the compilers have had to resort to the collection and analysis of representative samples from the areas in question, the collection sites being based on existing maps. Thus, whilst the references to the mapped areas indicate specific publications, the chemical data on which the coding is based are commonly derived from compilations such as Stillman & Williams (1979) and Stillman & Francis (1979) for volcanic rocks and Sutherland & Pankhurst (1982), Le Bas (1982), Hall (1972) and Brown et al. (1981) for plutonic rocks.

Beginning in the 18th century, the Alps were the first mountain belt in thehistory of European science to attract the interest of Naturalists. In consequence, many key geological principles were developed as a result of the progress of geological exploration in the Alps and, simultaneously, in the oceans. Within mountain belts, deep sea or pelagic sediments were first discovered before being clearly recognized as such.
Одно из базовых положений глобальной тектоники заключается в том, что офиолиты, распространенные в континентальных складчато-надвиговых системах различного возраста, представляют собой фрагменты древней океанической литосферы. На ранних этапах развития концепции плитовой тектоники считалось, что все офиолиты образуются в рифтовых зонах срединно-океанических хребтов [Колман, 1979]. Концепция разнотипности офиолитов неоднократно критиковалась [Колман, 1979; Hynes, 1975; Moores, 1975].
К настоящему времени очевидно, что разнообразие структурных, геохимических и петрологических характеристик офиолитов является результатом вариаций совокупности геологических процессов во время их формирования. Используя сравнение мафитультрамафитовых ассоциаций офиолитов континентов и мафит-ультрамафитовых ассоциаций коры современных океанов, исследователи восстанавливают историю геологического развития как отдельных складчато-надвиговых систем,
Проанализировано распределение разнотипных рудных месторождений в истории Земли начиная с 3,5 млрд лет и до современности. Выявлены планетарные металлогенические закономерности, не зависящие от возраста и типа структур и геодинамических обстановок. Показано, что существуют две металлогенические (минерагенические) линии распределения разнотипного оруденения – бассейновая и орогенная (взаимодействия континентальных блоков, процессы вдоль краев континентов).
Structural geology is the study of deformation features in rocks from microscopic to map scale. The required data are collected in field and supplemented by laboratory studies, aerial photographs, satellite imageries, and subsurface data (mostly obtained by geophysical methods). A geologist must explore an area with an open mind and interpretations and hypothesis must be based on actual field observations.
The most dramatic new discoveries about the structure of the Earth in recent years have been those arising from the investigations of the ocean floors and the deep structure of the Earth (as it now is) by geophysical means. For a long time, however, a much larger bulk of information has been accumulating from the investigations of the continental masses; moreover, this information generally yields evidence of successively earlier stages in tectonic history. It is clearly essential in elaborating geotectonic hypotheses to take into account all the relevant evidence, and failure to do so may, in large measure, be attributed to the difficulty of searching through an enormous bulk of literature on continental tectonics and also to the subjective way in which much of it appears. It therefore seemed appropriate and timely to make available tectonic data aiming at a convenient and essentially objective presentation <...>
