Metamorphic petrology and geology in China: A review
: The development of metamorphic petrology to metamorphic geology in China has a long history. Ancient basement metamorphic rocks are distributed primarily in the North China Craton, the Yangtze Block and Tarim Craton. They are mainly made up of plutonic

The contribution of metamorphic petrology to understanding lithosphere evolution and geodynamics
AbstractIn the early 1980s, evidence that crustal rocks had reached temperatures >1000 °C at normal lower crustal pressures while others had followed low thermal gradients to record pressures characteristic of mantle conditions began to appear in the literature, and the importance of melting in the tectonic evolution of orogens and metamorphic ...

Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology
So many new and exciting topics in petrology have appeared over the last several years that it has become difficult to find a text that deals adequately with fundamentals as well as current topics; the present book may be one of the better texts in its field today because it achieves this combination with clarity and appropriate emphasis.

A Simulated Research Problem For Undergraduate Metamorphic Petrology
Camelot is a laboratory problem in metamorphic petrology which is designed to simulate a research experience. The problem deals with data on scales ranging from a geologic map to hand specimens to thin sections. The map depicts a fold interference pattern due to two fold generations (F1 and F2).

Experimental metamorphic petrology [PDF]
Experimental studies in the last quadrennium that are applicable to metamorphic petrology are many and varied. They range from the rigorous formulation of P‐T diagrams to thermochemical studies and solubility measurements. One encouraging feature of the large number of studies is an attempt to correlate the various studies with those of other workers ...

The North Himalayan gneiss domes provide a window for looking into the deeper crust and record abundant clues of continent collisional orogenesis. This study carried out detailed petrology, in situ LA–ICP–MS biotite Rb–Sr dating, and phase equilibrium ...
