Figure 3.07. Metamorphic Facies. Approximate T-P regions of the ten metamorphic facies recommended by the IUGS (Fettes and Desmons, 2011). Mouseover a facies region to see the criteria used to define the facies. Click on the "Show Rxns" button to display reference reactions including aluminosilicate mineral stabilities (Pattison, 1992), wet haplogranite melting (see Makhluf and others (2017)), and albite = jadeite + quartz (Newton and Kennedy, 1968).
