Figure 1. A: Spatial distribution of Cretaceous orogens in southwestern Japan (modified from Aoki et al., 2011). B: Chronology of the San-
bagawa and the Shimanto orogenies. C and D: Distribution of major orogenic components of the Sanbagawa and Shimanto orogens. Circles
show sampling points. 1—BK11 (Sanbagawa HP-AC); 2—JC8 (Ryoseki-Monobegawa Group); 3—JC6 (Sanbosan AC); 4—09405-4 (Northern
Shimanto AC); 5, 6, and 7—BK12, BK7, and NK1 (Shimanto HP-AC); 8—IZ01 (Izumi Group). AC—accretionary complex; FAB—forearc basin;
HP-AC—high-pressure metamorphic rocks.
