BSE images to show zircon microstructural settings. (a) Sample 04-7-1 is from the Socorro–Guaxupé Nappe; in this sample zircon occurs in leucosome. (b) Sample 05b-13-13 is a retrograded eclogite in which zircon occurs as inclusions in garnet or in the symplectic aggregates of plagioclase and clinopyroxene. (c) Sample 05b-6-31b is from the top of the Três Pontas–Varginha Nappe; in this sample zircon is associated with ilmenite both in the matrix and as inclusions in the mantles of garnet. (d–g) Sample 04-6-11 is from the top of the Três Pontas–Varginha Nappe; in this sample zircon is associated with ilmenite in leucosome.

Isochemical phase diagrams for (a) sample 04-6-21 from close to the bottom of the Três Pontas–Varginha Nappe, and (b) sample 05b-6-31b from close to the top of the Três Pontas–Varginha Nappe. All assemblages also include quartz. Postulated schematic P–T path (0.15 GPa wide white arrow, which corresponds to an estimated nappe thickness of 5 km (Campos Neto & Caby 2000)) composed of a close-to-isobaric cooling segment in the deep crust of the hanging-wall nappe stack, an isentropic (close-to-isothermal) exhumation segment and a second close-to-isobaric cooling segment in the mid-crust.

Mesoscale features associated with fluid-present (A and B) and fluid-absent hydrate-breakdown (C and D) melting. (A) Stromatic metatexite migmatite with biotite-rich melanosomes interpreted to have formed by fluid-present melting. Floor of the Guest Hotel foyer at the China University of Geosciences, Wuhan, China; door key card for scale. (B) Patch metatexite migmatite in amphibolite interpreted to have formed by fluid-present melting; note coarser hornblende crystals associated with the in situ leucosome. From Caishixi in the Taohuayu Geoheritage Scenic Area, Taishan, Shandong Province, China; hand lens for scale. (C) Stromatic metatexite migmatite (khondalite) with pristine peritectic garnet in the leucosomes indicating loss of melt prior to retrograde cooling and final crystallization; this is interpreted to have been a fluid-absent hydrate-breakdown melting event. From Kulappara in the Kerala khondalite belt, southern India; diameter of coin ∼20 mm. (D) Mylonitized stromatic metatexite migmatite (high-pressure granulite) with pristine peritectic garnet associated with the leucosomes indicating loss of melt prior to retrograde cooling and final crystallization; this is interpreted to have been a fluid-absent hydrate-breakdown melting event. From the Lixão quarry in the Três Pontas–Varginha Nappe, southern Brasília belt, Brazil; diameter of coin ∼20 mm.
