“…However in large and hot orogens, such as the European Variscan belt, eclogites can be severely transformed and re-equilibrated under granulite and/or amphibolite-facies conditions, making it challenging to decipher natural and protolith ages, as well as eclogite peak P-T conditions (Dufour et al 1985;Piboule & Briand, 1985;O'Brien, 1997O'Brien, , 2000Medaris et al, 1995;Klápová et al, 1998;Faryad et al, 2010;Lardeaux, 2014;Štípská et al, 2014;Cruciani et al, 2015;Scodina et al, 2021). This is particularly the case for the eclogites from the Maures-Tanneron Massif, which is located in southeast France, for which available geochemical, petrologic are equivocal while modern geochronologic constraints are lacking (see Schneider et al, 2014;Oliot et al, 2015).…”
