Massive, boudinaged, rose-coloured layers up to one metre in thickness composed of 60–80 vol% spessartine-rich garnet and 15–40 quartz occur high-pressure, garnet-mica schist on Margarita I...

tourmaline can be found as an accessory mineral in a variety of rocks including leucogranite, pegmatite, quartz veins, and metamorphiccountry rocks in hajiabad-dehgah area in se of boroujerd city. tourmaline in pegmatites is coarse-grained, subhedral to euhedral, anddisplays strong to moderate pleochroic blue rimmed by olive green. in contrast, tourmalines from leucogranite, quartz-veins, and h...

Late Neoproterozoic-Early Cambrian schists have been occurred in southwest of Zanjan city from the Soltanieh belt. The Soltanieh belt in northwest of Iran is uplifted basement of Precambrian-Paleozoic in main central Iran zone and includes outcrops of Precambrian, Paleozoic and Mesozoic Formations. Late Neoproterozoic-Early Cambrian schists, the oldest stratigraphy unit in the region, consist o...

In the upper Subansiri District of Arunachal Pradesh, India, Higher Himalayan Crystallines are exposed in and around Taliha and the outcrop of MCT in the immediate south of Taliha is recognizable with the development of tourmaline bearing leucogranite dykes representing melting of the crustal rocks. The gneisses of the Taliha area consist of mainly quartz, mica, K-feldspar and garnet. The Quart...

Tourmaline in pegmatites is coarse-grained, subhedral to euhedral, anddisplays strong to moderate pleochroic blue rimmed by olive green.

for the first time, an unusual assemblage of talc-phengite-chlorite-k-feldspar was found in quartz schists from the sanandaj-sirjan zone in the nahavand area in western iran. the talc-bearing quartz schists occur as small bodies or lenses within pelitic schist layers and contain talc, phengite, chlorite, k-feldspar and quartz as major mineral constituents with subordinate amounts of calcite ...

We present surface and structural models of a swarm dm-scale subparallel faults exposed in ∼2000 m2 glaciated outcrop near Franz Josef Glacier, the Southern Alps New Zealand. These structures are inferred to have slipped at ∼20 km depth hanging-wall Alpine Schist Fault under conditions that were variably brittle ductile as Pacific Plate was tilted uplifted. Using field mapping, real-time kinema...
