The Tsaté Nappe is an Upper Penninic tectonic unit of the Western Alps cropping out in southern Valais and in the Valle d’Aosta. It comprises oceanic metasediments (mainly calcschists and black shales of Cretaceous age) and ophiolitic rocks of Jurassic age originating from the Piemonte-Liguria Ocean. This nappe is characterized by a chaotic aspect and metamorphism under conditions of blueschist facies followed by greenschist facies. It is interpreted as the result of the formation of an accretionary wedge at the foot of the active Adriatic margin and the subsequent subduction below this continental plate.

- In breve
-
The Frilihorn Nappe is a thin Upper Penninic tectonic unit intercalated within the Tsaté Nappe in the Val d’Anniviers, Zermatt Valley and Valtournanche. It is composed of a series of Briançonnais-type Permian–Triassic sediments overlain by Jurassic breccias and limestone and calcschists probably of Cretaceous age (hence quite similar to that of the Mont Fort Nappe).
