These two gneisses have been considered to represent distinct petrogenetic units; however, their major and trace element compositions as well as their Sr-Nd isotope characteristics show no systematic differences that are indicative for different protoliths.
The importance of preVariscan ('Caledonian') orogenic events for the metamorphic and deformational history of the Sudetes is not unambiguously documented and is a matter of considerable debate (e.g.

During the Middle and Late Miocene times, the fluvial system of this region was only slightly modified, especially in the foreland of the West and Middle Sudetes Mts.
Till that time, the main river valley of this region - the Nysa Kłodzka River, related to the Paczków and Kędzierzyn Grabens - used to flow towards the East, to a bay of the Paratethys sea.
Since the Pliocene, the Sudetic rivers have started to transport coarser, sandy, and even gravelly material to a more distant foreland.
