Effect of Rock Composition on Appearance of Garnet in Anorthosite–Charnockite Suites

Fe 2+ /Mg and normative An/Ab ratios of 55 rocks of the Adirondack anorthosite–charnockite suite subdivide the compositional field in two domains; one without garnet (at low ratios) and one commonly with garnet (at high ratios). A similar subdivision is shown by 27 rocks of the Morin Complex. On the...
