Reply to the comments on 'Magmatic history and geophysical signature of a post-collisional intrusive center emplaced near a crustal-scale shear zone: the Plechý granite pluton (Moldanubian batholith, Bohemian Massif)'

摘要

On the basis of geochemical data and single zircon evaporation ages, K. Breiter made an attempt to challenge our model for the synkinematic emplacement of the Plechy pluton (Verner et al. 2009). Before we address his main comments point by point, we emphasize that we would rather prefer to receive a process-oriented discussion on more general issues of pluton construction, and not on local geology, as it would be appropriate for a first-class venue such as International Journal of Earth Sciences. In general, we also find inadequate to discuss the internal structure and emplacement of plutons solely from the standpoint of geochemical and geochronologic data.
