Περίληψη
Granulites are metamorphic rocks that have undergone metamorphism under high temperature and medium pressure conditions, in the granulite metamorphic phase. Granulites are formed in great depths, usually at orogenetic zones, where the thermogradient is above 30°C/km. These rocks are formed at temperatures about 700°C and pressures that range from 2 to 15 kbar. They are distinguished into two categories, acid granulites and mafic granulites. Acid granulites derive from the regional high grade metamorphism of acid igneous rocks, arkoses or marls. They mainly contain K-feldspar, plagioclase and quartz. Mafic granulites derive from high grade metamorphism of basic and intermediate igneous rocks. Their mineralogy consists of feldspars and iron-magnesium minerals, like pyroxenes. Granulites have a granoblastic texture and in some cases, they exhibit a gneissic fabric. They are of great interest as they represent parts of the lower continental crust.
