Garnet-biotite geothermometry of a pelitic gneiss from the Lutzow-Holm Complex in Skallen, East Antarctica: Constraints on retrograde metamorphism

A garnet-rich pelitic gneiss was examined to estimate retrograde conditions of the Lutzow-Holm Complex in Skallen, East Antarctica. Porphyroblastic grains of garnet show a chemical zoning of an outward decrease in Mg/Fe, and include biotite, plagioclase and quartz. Local depletion in Mg/Fe of garnet...
