Fragments of garnet–clinopyroxene granulite with corona textures in ductilely deformed lower-amphibolite-grade quartzofeldspathic granitoid gneiss are exposed within the northeast-trending Tulemalu fault zone. The mineral association of the fragments is garnet–clinopyroxene–plagioclase(An 20 –An 22...
