Electron microprobe (EMP) dating on monazite in granulite-facies rocks from Forefinger Point,East Antarctica, yielded dominant ages of ~500 Ma on matrix monazites.They are associated with secondary cordierite, biotite and sapphirine, formed during nearly isothermal decompression after the high P-T a...
