... For testing the robustness of our data and our thermal history models, all samples were modeled unconstrained (only start points and end points provided) and constrained, based on geological observations and previously published, independent thermochronological data (see details in Supplementary Notes 1 and Supplementary Fig. 7). The starting point for each model was selected based on previously published thermochronological data from the specific areas (TFT, K-Ar, 40 Ar-39 Ar), recording temperatures of c. 265 and 350°C between c. 450 and c. 975 Ma 40,56,57 . The samples were forced to nearsurface conditions during the Late Paleozoic when the paleosurfaces formed 9,16,22,25 , after that, reheating due to burial by up to 3 km of Beacon sediments was allowed 22,27 . ...

... However, in the immediate foreland, subhorizontal structures are present with a top-to-the-west displacement. The <2 ~m fraction of an ultramylonite gave a K-Ar age of 473 • 11 Ma (Jacobs et al. 1995) and was interpreted as a minimum age of the top-to-the-west displacement. Thus far, these structures were interpreted as compressional; however, as argued above, these structures could also be the result of late orogenic extension. ...
