Dear all,
I would like to get references about garnet-bearing low-grade metapelites (phyllites and schists) which contain electron probe compositions of the garnet. The lowest grade the better.
I will make a compilation and post it at the end of discussion.
Thanks and Happy New Year!
PS: if pdf cannot be shared please send it to me by email at [email protected]
Thank you, Amaury.
I checked a couple but the Grs of those garnets isn't as high as I'd like. .
Cheers!
Bernardo
Dear Bernardo,
very high Grs garnets are mainly found in skarns and most of greenschist facies garnets I know have a CaO 10 wt% CaO. You are may be more interested in Springer et al. (1992), Journal of Metamorhic Geology 10, 147-170; and Kim et al. (1993), Journal of the Petrological Society of Korea 2, 63-73 where garnets >30 wt% CaO are included.
Kind regards,
Jan
