Abstract

Hydrothermal graphite has been found over an area of 3,000 Km2 in New Hampshire, USA. Its pervasive presence records fluid flow of regional extent during metamorphism. Graphite precipitated from metamorphic fluids crosscuts and replaces Silurian and Devonian metasedimentary and metaplutonic rocks. The metamorphic grade of host rocks ranges from kyanite + staurolite, to sillimanite, sillimanite + alkali feldspar, or cordierite + sillimanite + alkali feldspar.
