ABSTRACT The Bunger Hills, East Antarctica, experienced a low‐pressure granulite facies orogenic event during the Proterozoic. The stable coexistence of the S1 foliation‐parallel M1 assemblages, garnet‐cordierite‐spinel‐ilmenite and garnet‐sillimanite‐spinel‐ilmenite‐rutile, in quartz‐bearing peliti...
