Computer Programs for P-T History of Metamorphic Rocks using Pseudosection Approach
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper computer program THERMOCALC, GIBBS and THERIAK-DOMINO are discussed and pseudosections are generated on some chemical data taken from the published literature from the Himalaya and Alps and also new chemical and EPMA data generated from the Garhwal Himalaya to demonstrate the capabilities of THERMOCALC and THERIAK-DOMINO. Usefulness and limitations of computed pseudosections (equilibrium assemblage diagrams) with THERIAK-DOMINO and THERMOCALC in understanding evolutionary history of metamorphic rocks are discussed

Lateral extrusion, underplating, and out-of-sequence thrusting within the Himalayan metamorphic core, Kanchenjunga, Nepal
Integrated pseudosection modeling and monazite petrochronology of paragneiss from the Kanchenjunga region of northeastern Nepal reveal the presence of cryptic tectonometamorphic discontinuities within the Himalayan metamorphic core. These new data outline a series of thrust-sense structures that juxtapose rocks that generally record a protracted history of early Eocene to latest Oligocene–early...

Temperature and pressure of pelitic metamorphic rocks (metapelites), from the Jandaq area in NE Isfahan, are studied using pseudosection approach. The data used in this research are from already published data by other researchers; however the applied method is reported for the first time. The metamorphism temperature is estimated to be about 400 to 670°C and pressure to be 2-6 kbar in the pub...
متن کاملUnravelling P-T-t paths: Pseudo-sections versus classical phase petrology
Crystalline rocks record critical information about the magnitude and rates of geodynamic processes. Important factors such as: how deep; how hot; how fast; and for how long are all in some way encoded in the mineral assemblages, mineral compositions and microstructures. Our ability to estimate metamorphic pressure–temperature (P-T) conditions has improved markedly with the increased availabili...
متن کاملMetamorphism of basement rocks in the Central Zone of the North China Craton: implications for Paleoproterozoic tectonic evolution
Lithological, structural, metamorphic and geochronological data for the North China Craton enable its division into the Western and Eastern Blocks of Archean to Paleoproterozoic age separated by a north–south trending Paleoproterozoic orogenic belt: the Central Zone. The Central Zone is divisible into a series of lowto medium-grade granite–greenstone belts and high-grade metamorphic terrains co...

Metamorphic area, which is a subject of this study, is located in S-Qorveh (Zarineh region), northwest of the Sanadaj-Sirjan zone. According to the recent dating, the S-Qorveh plutonic body consists of a complex of granitoids, granodiorites, quartz monzonites, and gabbros, have intruded into the host metamorphic rocks, about 149-152 Ma and have generated contact metamorphism. Intrusions of vari...
