Regardless <strong>of</strong> textural type, the minerals arenot zoned. Alm<strong>and</strong>ine-rich garnet reveals flat chemicalpr<strong>of</strong>iles (Alm 62)65 Grs 11)21 Py 12)14 Sps 4)5 ; X Mg ¼ 0.16–0.18; Fig. 7a). Amphibole is magnesiohornblende ortschermakite, rarely edenite or pargasite. Plagioclase is<strong>and</strong>esine (An 30)50 ) <strong>and</strong> X Mg <strong>of</strong> rare clinopyroxeneequals 0.65–0.67.Tonalitic migmatitic gneiss is made up <strong>of</strong>Qtz + Pl + Bt + Amp ± Grt. Its structure is characterizedby alternations <strong>of</strong> leucosome, mesosome <strong>and</strong>melanosome layers several mm to 1 cm in thickness.Weak layering is defined by amphibole–plagioclaseaggregates alternating with quartz-rich domains(Fig. 4b). Plagioclase <strong>and</strong> amphibole are elongated(length 0.2–3 mm) in the leucosome <strong>and</strong> restitic layers,whereas plagioclase is isometric (up to 3 mm). Biotite(0.2–1 mm) is oriented parallel to the foliation togetherwith amphibole in melanosome. Garnet porphyroblasts(0.3 mm) occur in mesosome <strong>and</strong> melanosome. Largecoarse-grained quartz aggregates occurs in leucosome.Chemical pr<strong>of</strong>iles across garnet show slight zoning withcores being more spessartine-rich; the X Mg ratio is constant(0.10–0.12) (Fig. 7c). Amphibole is homogeneousferropargasite or hastingsite, regardless <strong>of</strong> the texturalposition <strong>and</strong> type <strong>of</strong> aggregate. X Mg in biotite rangesbetween 0.32 <strong>and</strong> 0.36, <strong>and</strong> the Ti content between 0.14<strong>and</strong> 0.22 p.f.u. The composition <strong>of</strong> plagioclase in boththe leucosome <strong>and</strong> melt patches is An 31)35 <strong>and</strong>esine.Ó 2005 Blackwell Publishing Ltd239
