Metamorphic Evolution

  • Chapter
Pre-Permian Geology of Central and Eastern Europe

Part of the book series: IGCP-Project 233 ((IGCP 233))

Abstract

The distribution of metamorphic complexes, their documented, or more often inferred, protolith ages and metamorphic grades are shown in Fig. 1 of Chapter VI.A. Here, a description of the complexes is given, generally according to their metamorphic grade. Particular attention is paid to eclogites and granulites which bear potentially important petrologic information.
