Abstract

Granulite-facies metamorphism in the structurally lower part of involved chemical elements, and temperature and pressure (e.g. The rate of the Saxon Granulite Massif culminated at 1010-1060C and >22 kbar. Ultrahigh-temperature conditions persisted even after a ionic diffusion in a crystal structure increases significantly with rise in temperature (e.g. Lasaga, 1981; Chakraborty significant drop in pressure. We dated monazite, zircon, rutile, garnet and apatite from felsic granulite by U-Pb, biotite from & Ganguly, 1990;
