The rare occurrence of Precambrian eclogite has been used to argue when plate tectonics initiated. Wellpreserved kyanite-bearing eclogites were collected in the Kuru-Vaara quarry, northern Belomorian Province, Fennoscandian Shield. Textural observations and phase equilibria modeling were applied to...
