A metamorphic petrological study, in conjunction with recent precise geochronometric data, revealed a complex P-T-t path for high-grade gneisses in a hitherto poorly understood sector of the Mesoproterozoic Maud Belt in East Antarctica. The Maud Belt is an extensive high-grade, polydeformed, metamor...
