Of a number of proposed heat sources that can cause midupper crustal anatexis, largescale crustal melting and formation of a granite magma layer is considered to be primarily related to plate convergence. A dynamic model with examples from the western Pacific continental margin in SE China and TethysTibet is proposed to explain the ...
The Early Paleozoic orogeny in the South China Block was accompanied by crustal anatexis, as indicated by the voluminous granites and migmatites. Here we report on the migmatitegranite suite within the Neoproterozoic biotite gneiss of the Baiyunshan Domain, which has directly recorded the process of anatectic melt formation, segregation and ...
Anatectic granites from the Fosdick migmatite–granite complex yield U–Pb zircon crystallization ages that range from 115 to 100Ma, with a dominant grouping at 107–100Ma, which corresponds to the timing of dome formation during the regional oblique extension that facilitated exhumation of the complex.
Anatexis plays a crucial role in the formation of migmatite Anatexis (via Latin from Greek roots meaning "to melt down") [ 1 ] in geology, refers to the differential, or partial, melting of rocks, especially in the forming of metamorphic rocks such as migmatites .

H. v. PLATEN (1965): Beitr. Miner, u. Petrogr. (inpress). 1) Note: This is a very important aspect of the experimental investigation, because only in the case of isobaric sections through the AbAnOrQ tetredron, representing rock compositions having a constant Ab/ An ratio, has it been experimentally observed that rocks of various compositions, lying on any one such Ab/ An section, give ...
Autron et. al. (1970) shows that the formation of large volumes of granite have formed during periods where there has been no metamorphism; for example, the Lower Silurian Caledonian Granites.
The origin of the paired granite belts and inverted metamorphic sequences of the Himalaya has generally been ascribed to development of the Main Central Thrust (MCT). Although a variety of models have been proposed that link early Miocene anatexis with inverted metamorphism, recent dating studies indicate that recrystallization of elements of ...
The latter, in turn, were involved in anatexis with the formation of adamellite and granite, immediately accompanied by hydrothermal gold mineralization. The multistep anatexis is the main petrogenetic process responsible for the gold resource potential of GTGG plutons.

These highpressure subfacies yield a range of temperatures between 500 and 1000 °C,
The discovery, at Kabbaldurga quarry, Karnataka, south India1–3, of patches of charnockite apparently in an arrested state of development has refocused attention on the mechanism of charnockite ...
The Insitu Melting model of granite reveals that granitic magma generated by anatexis is layerlike and magma convection results in thickening of the layer.
Early Ordovician subduction on the western Gondwana margin produced widespread highT, lowP metamorphism of the turbidites during the Famatinian orogeny (~500 440 Ma), resulting in extensive anatexis and granite plutonism.
The time lag between greenstone and granite formation reflects the time taken to conduct heat from the mantle to the lower crust. Anatexis of the lower crust produces a layer of light granitic magma that may temporarily stop the ascent of basaltic magma.
The origin of the paired granite belts and inverted metamorphic sequences of the Himalaya has generally been ascribed to development of the Main Central Thrust (MCT). Although a variety of models have been proposed that link early Miocene anatexis with inverted metamorphism, recent dating studies indicate that recrystallization of elements of the MCT footwall occurred in the central Himalaya ...
Title: Formation of Diatexite Migmatite and Granite Magma during Anatexis of Semipelitic Metasedimentary Rocks: an Example from St. Malo, France
Apr 18, 2013· Zircon UPb dating yields that (1) tourmaline leucogranite formed at ± Ma and its source rock experienced simultaneous metamorphism and anatexis at ± Ma; (2) twomica granite formed at ± Ma; (3) both types of leucogranite contain inherited zircon grains with an age peak at ∼480 Ma.
granite, recent field investigations found that the Paiku leucogranite is a composite pluton rather than a single one [25,26]. This pluton consists of tourmaline leucogranite, twomica leucogranite, and garnetbearing granite. In order to narrow down the formation age and characterize the mineral and geochemical composition of this leucogranitic
Migmatite is the penultimate member of a sequence of lithology transformations first identified by Lyell, 1837. Lyell had a clear perception of the regional diagenesis sequence in sedimentary rocks that remains valid today. It begins ''''''A'''''' with deposition of unconsolidated sediment (protolith for future metamorphic rocks).As temperature and pressure increase with depth, a ...

Mar 01, 2001· Petrological and geochemical variations are used to investigate the formation of granite magma from diatexite migmatites derived from metasedimentary rocks of pelitic to greywacke composition at St. Malo, France. Anatexis occurred at relatively low temperatures and pressures (<800°C, 4–7 kbar), principally through muscovite dehydration melting.
The layers of granite in migmatites, and perhaps larger granitic bodies, may have formed through anatexis. anatexis Migmatite formed by anatexis, near Geirengerfjord, Norway.
Granite genesis and crustal evolution are closely associated with partial melting in the lower or middle crust and extraction of granite magmas to upper crustal levels. This is generally thought to be the leading mechanism by which the upper continental crust became enriched in incompatible components such as the heatproducing elements U and ...
