Abstract The equilibrium model has been tested using Barrovian garnet‐zone micaschists of the Kalak Nappe Complex. In our model, equilibrium in the MnNCKFMASHT system was established across the entire rock volume during prograde metamorphism except for garnet, which developed growth zoning preserved...
