Antigorite, magnetite, carbonates (ankerite), diopside, clinohumite, tremolite, chlorite. Rarely, pseudomorphs on primary pyroxenes may be recognized, though there is superimposition of various deformational phases.
Serpentinized peridotite with plagioclase, olivine, plagioclase, clino-pyroxene, chromite. Secondary minerals include hydrogrossuaria as well as serpentine, chlorite, prehnite.
Grossular-andradite garnet, diopside, chlorite, sodic pyroxene, vesuvianite, titansphene, opaques. Traces of primitive gabbroid structure with diablastic development of the newlyformed phases and pseudomorphs of sodic pyroxene on primary pyroxenes.…
Traces of oceanic metamorphism in greenschist-amphibolitic facies and weak overprint in prehnite-pumpellyite facies.
Metamorphic oceanic paragenesis: dark hornblende, actinolite, chlorite, oligoclase-albite in microfractures or reaction rims on…
Albite, Na-amphiboles (from Mg-riebeckite to glaucophane, epidote, aegirinic pyroxene, chlorite, ilmenite, tspesphene, apatite, lawsonite. Pseudomorphic relations of the metamorphic paragenesis on the substituted primary phases. Sometimes lawsonite…
Sodic pyroxene, glaucophane, lawsonite, chlorite. Pseudomorphs of sodic pyroxene and glaucophane,chlorite on original augitic pyroxenes; pseudomorphs of lawsonite and glaucophane on original plagioclase.
Dioritic gabbro with deformational oceanic metamorphism of amphibolitic to greenschist facies and overprinting of prehnite-pumpellite.
Primary phases: plagioclase, clinopyroxene, olivine, ilmenite. Oceanic metamorphic paragenesis: plagioclase,…
Carbonates (calcite and dolomite), chlorites, garnets, diopside, epidote, serpentine, amphiboles. Very variable compositions in same hand specimen. The rock derives from metamorphism of oficalcitic rocks developed at very high pressures and medium…
Relics of augitic clinopyroxene, albite, actinolite, chlorite, clinozoisite, and sphene. Relics of the clinopyroxene of the original dolerite are in part substituted by chlorite and actinolite in a granoblastic and metablastic matrix of albite,…
