“…High‐strain continental‐scale shear zones are typically characterized by low‐strength lithosphere, and show notable vertical and horizontal changes in rock types and mineral assemblages according to variations in deformation‐related temperature ( T ) and pressure ( P ) conditions (Bürgmann & Dresen, 2008; Cao & Neubauer, 2016; Ceccato et al., 2020; Jamieson & Beaumont, 2011). Exhumed Barrovian metamorphic sequence (BMS) rocks in tectonically active orogenic‐scale shear zones can record physico‐chemical variations that occur between brittle rocks in the shallow crust, through the brittle–ductile transition, to the highly deformable and partially melted lower crust (Masters & Ague, 2005; Palin et al., 2018). BMS units in the Himalaya have been used to constrain the thermal evolution and convergence processes during collision between Greater India with Eurasia since c. 50 Ma (Anczkiewicz et al., 2014; Burg & Moulas, 2022; Carosi et al., 2010; Jessup et al., 2016; Khanal et al., 2021; Mottram et al., 2014; Smit et al., 2014; St‐Onge et al., 2013; Tewari et al., 2021).…”
