Blueschist facies rocks are known from two suture zones in the Western Carpathians, the Meliata unit and the Pieniny Klippen Belt. In the Meliata unit, blueschists are exposed on surface, but in the Klippen Belt only pebbles of different blueschist varieties were found in the Middle Cretaceous conglomerates. Based on paleogeographic reconstruction (Dercourt et al., 1990; Kozur and Mock, 1997; Channel and Kozur, 1996; Plasienka, 1997; Stampfli, et al., 1998; Neugebauer, 2001), the Meliata unit...

	Origin and Metamorphic Evolution of Blueschists and Very Low-Grade Rocks of the Meliata Unit, Western Carpathians Geolines ; Numerous petrological data on the blueschist facies rocks of the Meliata Unit have been obtained during the last decade (e.g. Faryad, 1995, Ivan and Kronome, 1996). Recently we have examined the very low-grade rocks (Arkai et al., 2003), which occur in the vicinity of this unit and obtained new

	The Early Miocene Olistostromes and "Old Styrian Overthrusting" in the Polish Western Carphatians Geolines ; The Lower Miocene, autochthonous deposits from the basement of the Flysch Western Carpathians in Poland have been known since the late 1970's. The deposits were documented in the following deep boreholes: Bielsko 4, Sucha IG 1, Zawoja 1, Lachowice 1, 2, 3a, 7, Cieszyn IG 1, Bielowicko IG 1 and

The orogen formed by forearc accretion of island arcs, accretionary wedges, ophiolites and Precambrian
