Structural data for ductile shearing, separated into 8 areas. For each separate region stereographic projections of poles to planes and lineations are given (Schmidt, lower hemisphere). Great circles and their labels represent the mean orientation of the foliation (dip direction/dip). Red great circles correspond to the foliation in the Helvetic meta-sediments, black great circles correspond to the foliation in the basement or Sion-Courmayeur zone units, according to stereogram label. For areas II and VIII see Fig. 10. The projections are coded for lithologies where appropriate according to the legend
