Thermo-chronology of the Barlet metamorphic basement unit: evidence for a Stephanian thermal event linked to Sb mineralization in the Haut Allier, France
|
Abstract:
A thermo-chronological analysis of the Barlet basement unit (French Massif Central) reveals a four-stage history. Peak metamorphism (650 °C and 7 kbar) was followed by retrograde growth of albite blasts and development of the main foliation at 600 °C, and chloritization of the ferromagnesian minerals. The third stage is a marked reversal of cooling, with recrossing of the biotite isograd and local reappearance of garnet at 450 °C. This thermal event, inferred to result fro...
