Abstract/NotesAbstractAmphibolites from the Grampian Moines of Scotland contain clinopyroxene-plagioclase symplectites and plagioclase-hornblende coronas around garnet. The clinopyroxene-plagioclase symplectites are interpreted as former omphacites. It is inferred that an eclogitic garne-tomphacite-quartz assemblage once existed, but has since undergone partial reaction to an amphibolite facies hornblende-plagioclase assemblage. An early high-pressure metamorphic event occurred in parts of the Moine.
