Ultrahigh-temperature metamorphic rocks from Howard Hills in the Napier Complex, East Antarctica
The Howard Hills area consists predominantly of garnet felsic gneiss, orthopyroxene felsic gneiss and aluminous gneiss which contain garnet, sapphirine and sillimanite in various amounts The characteristic assemblage of sapphirine+quartz is present in quartzo-feldspathic layers within the aluminous...
