Chemical compositions of the constituent minerals of the Gazo mass, a tectonic block in the Sambagawa metamorphic belt, Besshi district, central Shikoku, Japan
Description
The Gazo mass is an eclogite−bearing tectonic block within the Sambagawa metamorphic belt,central Shikoku,Japan.Chemical compositions of constituent minerals in pelitic and basic schists and eclogites from the Gazo mass have been analyzed by EPMA.Garnets contain < 13 mol% of the pyrope molecule and < 35 mol% grossular Clinopyroxenes are aregirine-augite and omphacite.Amphiboles are both sodic-calcic(magnesiokatophorite,katophorite,magnesiotaramite,taramite and barroisite)and calcic(edenite,ferredenite and magnesiohornblende).The white micas present are paragonite and phengite.
