Abstract

A study of a natural system concerning the growth of minerals (garnet) intometapelite host rocks from Calabria (southern Italy), which underwent pressure up to 1.2 GPa,is presented. Through the application of a thermodynamic model it was possible to determine Pand T conditions achieved during metamorphic evolution of these rocks useful to reconstructthe related tectonic settings of poly-orogenic metamorphic complexes.
