Display omitted •Newly-discovered earliest Devonian amphibolites in the Saualpe basement, Eastern Alps.•Magma formed in a slab window environment associated with mid-ocean ridge subduction.•The opening of the West Paleo-Tethys Ocean happened during Late Silurian–earliest Devonian. The timing of the opening of the West Paleo-Tethys Ocean in Eastern Alps remains unclear. To constrain this event, we present new zircon U-Pb ages, Hf isotopic compositions, and whole-rock major- and trace-element data for the meta-mafic rocks (amphibolites) in the southern and western Saualpe crystalline basement, Eastern Alps. Zircon U-Pb dating of three samples yield crystallization ages of 418 ± 6 Ma, 417 ± 3 Ma and 415 ± 3 Ma, indicating that they formed during the earliest Devonian. Geochemically, these meta-mafic rocks have relatively low SiO2 and MgO contents and high TiO2 contents. They are enriched in light rare earth elements (LREE), particularly in Nb and Ta, and show relatively flat heavy rare-earth elements (HREE) patterns, suggesting that they have affinities with the alkaline oceanic island basalts (OIB). The geochemical characteristics, together with the positive εHf(t) values of 0.7–11.1, imply that the OIB-like meta-mafic rocks originated from partial melting of a lherzolite source including spinel and garnet. The primary magma shows complex sources involving asthenospheric, lithospheric mantle and subducted slab components, which was subsequently modified by crustal contamination. This reveals that the magma formed in a slab window environment associated with mid-ocean ridge subduction. The contemporaneous OIB-like alkaline amphibolites were also found in the Central Austroalpine basement and in Northwestern Turkey. We suggest that the Late Silurian–earliest Devonian OIB-like magmatism is related to a back-arc extension setting along the northern margin of Gondwana leading to the separation of the European Hunic terranes and hence placing age constraints on the opening of the West Paleo-Tethys Ocean.
