Through the reexamination of metamorphic rocks in the Cape Omega area, the associations of orthopyroxene-garnet-biotite and cordierite (mg=0.95)-sillimanite-biotite (mg=0.92) are found in some kinds of metapelites. Based upon the petrographical and mineralogical investigations of the rocks, it is cl...
