Orthopyroxene-Corundum in Mg-Al-rich Granulites from the Oygarden Islands, East Antarctica
High-Mg–Al, silica-undersaturated metapelites from the Oygarden Group of islands, East Antarctica, preserve clear evidence for the stable coexistence of the assemblage orthopyroxene + corundum in natural rocks. The quartz-absent metapelite occurs as pods and isolated layers within a high-strain zone...
