Abstract: | Based upon the knowledge of the field relations the mineral assemblages of the various metamorphic rocks of the area are plotted in AKF-diagrams with the aim at determining possible mutual reaction relationships. For the eastern part a continuous metamorphic transition follows, starting with mica schists of the Lower Palaeozoic Saxothuringicum as characterized by the assemblage biotite-muscovite- and alusite through a series of biotite-sillimanite-gneisses with garnet of K feldspar into the high-grade gneisses and migmatites of the Moldanubicum as typified by cordierite-sillimanite-K feldspar parageneses. Hence the age of this metamorphism common to all units is probably early Variscan (= Hercynian). In the western part the Moldanubian unit, in particular, was affected by wide-spread later diaphthoresis creating mineral assemblages like chlorite-biotite-muscovite and chlorite-phengitic white mica, that represent a lower facies than that of the neighbouring mica schists. This diapthoresis is also of Hercynian age, because it is followed by the intrusion of igneous rocks probably during Sudetic (= Middle Carboniferous) times. |
