Description (Dublin Core)

eng Amphibole bearing parageneses from the western part of Mt. Psunj (Croatia) record evidence of prograding metamorphism. Optical and microprobe analyses, together with thermobarometric evaluations on amphibole bearing parageneses, show a zonation with Si- and Mg-concentrations decreasing from core to rim along with increasing Al-, Na-, and Ti-content. Changes in the chemical composition of amphibole grains are interpreted through coupled substitutions, and reactions with co-existing minerals during an increase in metamorphic conditions from greenschist to amphibolite facies. The change in P-T conditions recorded in the growth of amphibole grains (general prograding pattern) together with changes in the modal compositions in related parageneses could be interpreted in a model of a subduction zone.
