Clinoamphibole from a mylonitic amphibolite, located on Senja, Norway, exhibits microstructures characteristic of dynamic recrystallization, including larger host grains in a finer grained matrix of needle shaped amphibole. The matrix amphibole defines an LS fabric and host grains have core and mant...
