For today’s #ThinSectionThursday I have a zoned #Garnet grain that is overgrown by staurolite. This beautiful texture is from a Grt-St-Ky-shist from the Moldanubian zone in Austria.

Some cool microtextures for #ThinSectionThursday: plagioclase-films separating quartz from hornblende in crystallized melts hosted in #eclogites. Check out the paper if you'd like to know more!👀#WeBringStructureIntoIt sciencedirect.com/science/authSh…

You love #eclogites and #melting?💥Then have a look at our fresh paper in #LITHOS investigating fluid-fluxed melting at the #EclogiteTypeLocality – thanks @HartnadyMichael, J. Diener, @chrisfpclark & C. Harris! 👉sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

KFMASH in action: the prograde breakdown of chloritoid (pale green) + quartz = staurolite (golden) + chlorite + garnet (+H2O) in polymetamorphic micaschist from the southern Koralpe (Eastern Alps, Austria). #petrology rules! 💪⚒️😎

Kurt Stüwe & @SchornSimon went on a quick reconnaissance-trip to the souther Koralpe (eastern #alps, Austria) looking for polymetamorphic rocks - and found some real jucy #garnet-#staurolite-bearing micaschists 😎💪⚒️ #WeBringStructureIntoIt
