a Geological map of the Balagne ophiolite (redrawn after Rossi et al. 2001) and geographical location of the ophiolites of Corsica island (inset map). b Stratigraphic reconstruction of the Balagne volcano-sedimentary sequence and location of sample selected for the geochronological investigation. A simplified reconstruction of the Multifao slice (not to scale) is also shown. The two sections are correlated assuming that the gabbros in the lowermost part of the Multifao slice represent the substrate of the Balagne ophiolite
