Time calibration of a P-T path from a Variscan high-temperature low-pressure metamorphic complex (Bayerische Wald, Germany), and the detection of inherited monazite

A temperature-time path was constructed for high-temperature low-pressure (HT-LP) migmatites of the Bayerische Wald, internal zone of the Variscan belt, Germany. The migmatites are characterised by prograde biotite dehydration melting, peak metamorphic conditions of approximately 850 degreeC and 0.5...

Description
Summary:A temperature-time path was constructed for high-temperature low-pressure (HT-LP) migmatites of the Bayerische Wald, internal zone of the Variscan belt, Germany. The migmatites are characterised by prograde biotite dehydration melting, peak metamorphic conditions of approximately 850 degreeC and 0.5-0.7 GPa and retrograde melt crystallisation at 800 degreeC.
