| Abstract/Notes | SummaryAn enstatite-cordierite-sillimanite-quartz rock from a pyroxenegranulite facies terrain in southern Rhodesia gives evidence of at least two stages of recrystallization : an early, high-pressure recrystallization to form the assemblage enstatite-kyanite-quartz, and a later, ‘retrogressive’ recrystallization during which kyanite inverted to sillimanite, and cordierite was formed by reaction. The rock itself has ratios of R2+ : Al : Si that are virtually those of cordierite ; the recent data of Schreyer (1967) may thus be applied to the occurrence. The early kyanite-enstatite recrystallization occurred under pressures in excess of 10 kb, corresponding to depths greater than those of the continental Moho. |
