Amphibolite-tonalite relationships: Part I. Experimental investigation of the phase relationships and textural development of amphibolite dehydration-melting. Part II. The geology, petrology and geochronology of a tonalitic and mafic dike swarm (southwestern foothills terrane, California)

PART I: Phase relationships have been determined for the dehydration-melting of a (powdered and solid) calcic, low-K, olivine tholeiitic amphibolite (hornblende 70%, plagioclase 30%), in runs at 10 kbar, 750 to 1000°C,fO2 ~= Ni-NiO, and for 1 to 21 days. Hornblende is involved in a sliding reaction:...
