ABSTRACT. -The occurrence in Italy of Quaternary carbonatite-melilitite rocks, belonging to the Intra-mountain Ultra-alkaline Province (IUP), is considered in order to discuss a likely geodynamic environment for the Tyrrhenian-Apennine system. The IUP tectonic setting is described at the crustal and lithospheric scale and compared with the HK-series of the Roman eo-magmatic Province. It is concluded that a suitable mantle source for the IUP and HKS melts products (e.g. a radiogenic source with a phlogopite-bearing carbonate peridotite composition) does not need either the westward subduction of the Adriatic continental lithosphere or a mantle plume. The IUP and HKS geochemistry, as well as the deformation history of the Tyrrhenian-Apennine ...
