Short summary
We investigated the Vocontian Basin in the SE of France to understand its tectonic evolution at the intersection between the Alps and Pyrenees. By combining calcite U–Pb dating, burial modeling, and Raman thermometry, we identified three major deformation phases from the Late Cretaceous to the Miocene. Our results highlight how brittle deformation, fluid circulation, and thermal gradients record the interplay of multiple mountain-building and rifting events.
