Microstructures of melt inclusions in anatectic metasedimentary rocks

Abstract: The occurrence of crystallized and glassy melt inclusions (MI) in high-grade, partially melted metapelites and metagraywackes has opened up new possibilities to investigate anatectic processes. The present study focuses on three case studies: khondalites from the Kerala Khondalite Belt (India), the Ronda migmatites (Spain), and the Barun Gneiss (Nepal Himalaya). The results of a detailed microstructural investigation are reported, along with some new microchemical data on the bulk composition of MI. These incl… Show more

“…(3) Multiphase inclusions in garnets within ultrahigh-temperature (UHT) granulites of the Barun Gneiss (Himalayas, Nepal) contain mostly quartz, biotite, muscovite, and plagioclase, together with accessory minerals such as zircon (Ferrero et al 2012). The inclusions are crystallized anatectic melt trapped within the garnet host; similar inclusions from other localities may even preserve glassy quenched melt (Ferrero et al 2012).…”

“…Garnets and other refractory minerals in mantle rocks, ultrahigh-pressure (UHP) rocks, and high-grade gneisses may contain multiphase solid inclusions that are relicts of fluids entrapped during garnet growth (e.g., Stöckhert et al 2001;van Roermund et al 2002;Carswell and van Roermund 2005;Ferrando et al 2005;Malaspina et al 2006;Frezzotti et al 2007;Perchuk 2008;Mposkos et al 2009;Ferrero et al 2012;Hermann et al 2013). Common inclusion phases are quartz/coesite, feldspars, micas, chlorite, carbonates, apatite, rutile, graphite, and zircon.…”

“…The above model calculations depend on overstepping only to the extent that they have utilized results from overstepped melting experiments to evaluate the extent of heterogeneity of crustal melts at the source. One way to check for the presence of overstepping during crustal anatexis is by comparing the compositional patterns of melt obtained in experiments conducted and several degrees of overstepping (Acosta-Vigil et al, 2006b) with the compositions of crustal melts produced at the source area, recorded by melt inclusions in anatectic enclaves and migmatites (Acosta-Vigil et al, 2007;Cesare et al, 2011;Ferrero et al, 2012).…”
