MMF: Monte Marine Fault. b Geological cross section across the central Apennines (from the L’Aquila Basin to the Gran Sasso Range) showing the general structural architecture of the range (based on the CARG sheet n° 349-Gran Sasso d’Italia112 and n° 348-Antrodoco113. c Satellite image of the study area (Map data: Google earth, Airbus), showing the main fault traces and locations of the studied samples, including the corresponding dolomite TL ages (see also Table 1).
