Himalayan Metamorphism and Its Tectonic Implications

, 2014
The Himalayan range exposes a spectacular assemblage of metamorphic rocks from the mid- and deep crust that have fostered numerous models of how the crust responds to continental collisions.

Some Precambrian banded iron-formations (BIFs) from around the world: Their age, geologic setting, mineralogy, metamorphism, geochemistry, and origins

, 2005
Banded iron-formations (BIFs) occur in the Precambrian geologic record over a wide time span. Beginning at 3.8 Ga (Isua, West Greenland), they are part of Archean cratons and range in age from about 3.5 until 2.5 Ga.

On metamorphism in meteorites

, 1921
Introductory Statement For some years there has been a growing feeling among those who have given the subject consideration, that the peculiar structures found in many meteoric stones are due not to hasty crystallization from a molten magma, as has been ...

Factors of Metamorphism

1965
Temperature and pressure are the physical factors that control the process of metamorphism. Metamorphism, in general, refers to the reactions between neighboring minerals of a rock in response to conditions of temperature and pressure prevailing at depth.

Seismic consequences of warm versus cool subduction metamorphism: examples from southwest and northeast japan

Science, 1999
Warm and cool subduction zones exhibit differences in seismicity, seismic structure, and arc magmatism, which reflect differences in metamorphic reactions occurring in subducting oceanic crust.

The Realm of Ultrahigh-Pressure Metamorphism

, 2013
The discovery of diamond and coesite in crustal rocks is compelling evidence that continental material has experienced pressures that can only be achieved at mantle depths.

The Hellenic Subduction System: High-Pressure Metamorphism, Exhumation, Normal Faulting, and Large-Scale Extension

, 2010
The Cenozoic history of the retreating Hellenic subduction system in the eastern Mediterranean involves subduction, accretion, arc magmatism, exhumation, normal faulting, and large-scale continental extension from ∼60 Mya until the Recent.

Metamorphism of Marls

1974
Marls constitute a group of sedimentary rocks with a very large range of composition. The clay constituents, predominantly dioctahedral micas (illite, phengite, muscovite), chlorite, and quartz, are mixed with calcite and/or dolomite in varying proportions.

Fluid-induced processes: metasomatism and metamorphism

, 2010
Metamorphism and metasomatism both involve the reequilibration of mineral assemblages due to changes in pressure, temperature and ⁄or chemical environment.
