p.68: The Antrona Nappe corresponds to the same oceanic rocks with eclogitic relics as that of the Zermatt - Saas Fee Nappe, except for the metacherts that are missing in the Antrona Nappe. Structurally, it is situated below the Monte Rosa Nappe, but above the Siviez-Mischabel Nappe and its probable extension in the Camughera Nappe (see Pl. II, western cross-section). This peculiar position between two Middle Penninic units raises questions concerning its kinematic history and paleogeographic origin. Because of its similarity to the Zermatt - Saas Fee Nappe, and assuming transport over the Middle Penninic nappes, the Antrona Nappe is thought to have an origin in the Piemonte-Liguria Ocean (e. g., Escher et al. 1997). However, a thrusting of the Middle Penninic nappes over the Antrona Nappe is also postulated, implying its attribution to the Lower Penninic and origin in the Valaisan oceanic Basin (e. g., Kell er & Schmid 2001, Pleuger et al. 2005).
