P–T–d history of MZ rocks inferred from PT-estimates compared to P–T–d paths of other units close to the MZ: RCTU-Rocca Canavese Thrust Sheets Unit (Roda et al. 2018); EMC-Eclogitic Micaschists Complex, Corio (Rebay and Messiga 2007) and Orco (Pognante 1989b); LM-Lanzo Massif (Pelletier and Müntener 2006). The age of metamorphic peak conditions of the LM are after Rubatto et al. (2008). Metamorphic facies after Ernst and Liou (2008): GS: greenschist; Ep-A: epidote-bearing amphibolite; BS: blueschist; AM: amphibolite; EC: eclogite; HGR: high pressure granulite; GR: granulite. Geotherms: 3a) warm subduction zones, 3b) cold subduction zones (Cloos 1993); Vi: stable geotherms (England and Thompson 1984) for continental crust
