It is noteworthy that such high magnetic susceptibilities are absent in many of the other granitoids of the Hercynian belt. |
|
The collision between Gondwana and Laurasia led to the formation of the Appalachian belt in North America and the Hercynian Mountains in Europe. |

This makes them very unusual within the western European Hercynian belt and suggests a peculiar orogenic context. |

The basin closed when these Caledonian deformed terranes were accreted again to Laurussia during the Hercynian orogeny. |
|
Waved maritime heath grows over shallow podzolic soils which are underlain by Hercynian granite. |
|
The geology consists of Hercynian granite with shallow podzolic soils on the higher ground and deeper sandy soils on the lower ground. |
|
In addition, also near the Hercynian forest Caesar believed that the Celtic Tectosages had once lived. |
|
Tacitus knows that the Helvetians once settled in the swath between Rhine, Main, and the Hercynian forest. |
