Detailed analysis of textural and chemical criteria in rocks of the anorthosite-charnockite suite of the Adirondack Highlands suggests that development of garnet in silica-saturated rocks of the suite occurs according to the reaction: $$\begin{gathered} {\text{Anorthite}} {\text{Orthopyroxene}} {\text{Quartz}} \hfill \\ {\text{2CaAl}}_{\text{2}} {\text{Si}}_{\text{2}} {\text{O}}_{\text{8}} + (6 - \alpha )({\text{Fe,Mg}}){\text{SiO}}_{\text{3}} + \alpha {\text{Fe - Oxide + (}}\alpha {\text{ - 2)SiO}}_{\text{2}} \hfill \\ {\text{Garnet}} {\text{Clinopyroxene}} \hfill \\ = {\text{Ca(Fe,Mg)}}_{\text{5}} {\text{Al}}_{\text{4}} {\text{Si}}_{\text{6}} {\text{O}}_{{\text{24}}} + {\text{Ca(Fe,Mg)Si}}_{\text{2}} {\text{O}}_{\text{6}} \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ , where α is a function of the distribution of Fe and Mg between the several coexisting ferromagnesian phases. Depending upon the relative amounts of Fe and Mg present, quartz may be either a reactant or a product. Using an aluminum-fixed reference frame, this reaction can be restated in terms of a set of balanced partial reactions describing the processes occurring in spatially separated domains within the rock. The fact that garnet invariably replaces plagioclase as opposed to the other reactant phases indicates that the aluminum-fixed model is valid as a first approximation. This reaction is univariant and produces unzoned garnet. It differs from a similar equation proposed by de Waard (1965) for the origin of garnet in Adirondack metabasic rocks, i.e. 6 Orthopyroxene+2 Anorthite = Clinopyroxene+Garnet+2 Quartz, the principle difference being that iron oxides (ilmenite and/or magnetite) are essential reactant phases in the present reactions. The product assemblage (garnet+clinopyroxene+plagioclase ± orthopyroxene ± quartz) is characteristic of the clinopyroxene-almandine subfacies of the granulite facies. 相似文献

The mixing properties of Fe3Al2Si3O12-Ca3Al2Si3O12 garnet solid solutions have been studied in the temperature range 850–1100° C. The experimental method involves measuring the composition of garnet in equilibrium with an assemblage in which the activity of the Ca3Al2Si3O12 component is fixed. Experiments on the assemblage garnet solid solution, anorthite, Al2SiO5 polymorph and quartz at known pressure and temperature fix the activity of the Ca3Al2Si3O12 component through the equilibrium:

Five geobarometers involving cordierite have been formulated for quantitative pressure sensing in high grade metapelites. The relevant reactions in the FeO-Al2O3-SiO2 (±H2O) system are based on the assemblages (A) cordierite-garnet-sillimanite-quartz, (B) cordierite-spinel-quartz, (C) cordierite-garnet-spinel-sillimanite, (D) cordierite-garnet-orthopyroxene-quartz and (E) cordierite-orthopyroxene-sillimanite-quartz. Application of the barometric formulations to a large number of granulite grade rocks indicates that the cordierite-garnet-sillimanite-quartz equilibrium is widely applicable and registers pressures which are in good agreement with the “consensus” pressure estimates. The dispersion in the computed P values, expressed as one standard deviation, is within ±1.2 kbar. The geobarometers (B) and (C) also yield pressures which are reasonable and compare well with those computed from equilibrium (A). The estimated pressures from (D) and (E), both involving orthopyroxene, are at variance with these estimates. It has been argued that the discrepancy in pressures obtained from these geobarometers stems from an inadequate knowledge of activity-composition relations and/or errors in input thermodynamic data of aluminous orthopyroxene. The convergence of pressure values estimated from the barometric formulations, especially (A), (B) and (C), implies that the present formulations are more dependable than the existing formulations and are also capable of setting limits on P values in response to varying $$\begin{gathered} {\text{1/2Fe}}_{\text{2}} {\text{Al}}_{\text{4}} {\text{Si}}_{\text{5}} {\text{O}}_{{\text{18}}} \hfill \\ {\text{ = 1/3Fe}}_{\text{3}} {\text{Al}}_{\text{2}} {\text{Si}}_{\text{3}} {\text{O}}_{{\text{12}}} {\text{ + 2/3Al}}_{\text{2}} {\text{SiO}}_{\text{5}} {\text{ + 5/6SiO}}_{\text{2}} {\text{.

Titanite and rutile are a common mineral pair in eclogites, and many equilibria involving these phases are potentially useful in estimating pressures of metamorphism. We have reversed one such reaction,
