The lithology and stratigraphy of the exotic terrane embraces Cambrian black metasediments, Ordovician, Arenig-Ashghillian metaturbidites of distal flisch facies, separated by three marble beds dated by conodonts, and followed by unmetamorphosed Llandoverian-Lower Ludlovian limestones overlain by siltstones and orogenic flysch (a few kilometres thick)
