Abstract:<p>Oriented rutile needles in garnet commonly occur in high-temperature / high-pressure rocks such as high-pressure granulites, ultrahigh-pressure rocks, and mantle peridotite. Faceted inclusions of plagioclase and quartz in garnet are also indicators of high &#8211; and possibly very high &#8211; grade conditions. Both inclusion textures are spectacularly displayed in garnets in sillimanite-bearing gneiss of the North Cascade Range (USA) in rocks that record peak P-T conditions o… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
