This study investigates the deformation mechanisms of a metagabbroic dyke experiencing syn-kinematic melt-rock interaction in a continental lower-crustal shear zone in the Seiland Igneous Province (northern Norway). Solid state shearing occurred at T=750-820 °C, P=0.75-0.95 GPa and was coeval with m...
