The current structure of the Iberian Massif is the result of three orogenic cycles, namely the Cadomian, Variscan, and Alpine. Gondwana was affected by long- lived subduction under its periphery during the Neoproterozoic and Lower Palaeozoic (D’Lemos et al . 1990; Quesada 1990; Nance et al . 1991; Eguíluz et al . 2000; Chantraine et al . 2001; Linnemann et al . 2007; Pereira et al . 2007), its northern paleomargin bearing evidence of arc-related magmatism (Dorr et al . 2002; Bandrés et al . 2004; Drost et al . 2004; Henriques et al . 2015; Rubio-Ordóñez et al . 2015), basin development in active settings (Linnemann et al . 2000, 2007; Fuenlabrada et al . 2012, 2016; Fernández-Suárez et al . 2014; Pereira 2015; Rojo-Pérez et al . 2019), and contrac- tional and extensional deformation (Balé and Brun 1989; Strachan and Taylor 1990; Eguíluz et al . 2000; Kröner Figure 1.
