Abstract
In the Central High Atlas axis, the Triassic to Mid-Jurassic sedimenta ry and magmatic rocks have been affected by a polyphased contact and h ydrothermal metamorphism characterized by a relatively high geothermal gradient, contemporaneous with the emplacement of the Jurassic pluton ic suite in a transcurrent setting.
