Anatexis, Formation of Migmatites, and Origin of Granitic Magmas

  • Chapter
Petrogenesis of Metamorphic Rocks

Part of the book series: Springer Study Edition ((SSE))

Abstract

In metamorphic terrains, high-grade metamorphic rocks are spatially, and presumably genetically, related to migmatites. Read (1957) describes this general observation as follows: “One of the most firmly established facts in metamorphic geology is the close association in the field of highest-grade metamorphic rocks and migmatites.”
