Solid phase inclusions in minerals from eclogites, peridotites and granulites in the Kutná Hora Complex
Jedlička, Radim ; Faryad, Shah Wali (advisor) ; Svojtka, Martin (referee)
Studium pevných inkluzí vybraných minerálů eklogitů, peridotitů a granulitů Kutnohorské oblasti English abstract Felsic granulites with lenses and boudins of garnet peridotites and eclogites, for which UHP conditions have been obtained, commonly occur in the Moldanubian Zone of the Bohemian Massif. However, it is not clear when and how the HP-UHPM rocks were emplaced into the host granulites. The most important question that remains is, whether the felsic granulites also experienced UHP metamorphism. By studying solid phase inclusions and compositional zoning in resistant phases as garnet, we provide evidence of prograde metamorphism of felsic rocks prior to their granulite facies overprint. Finding mono-mineral inclusion of Ti-rich phengite point to prograde evolution of the rocks.Polyphase inclusions of phengite and biotite indicate that it was previously Ti-poor phengite. Another important inclusion is graphite, which could be remnant of micro-diamond inclusion. Well-preserved prograde zoning of major elements in garnet from the felsic granulites is supported by zoning patterns of trace elements, such as titanium, chromium and yttrium and rare earth elements. Both these groups of elements remain heterogeneous at a micro-scale. The garnet profiles reveal that the rocks preserved signs of multiple stages...

Thermobarometry of garnet peridotites and granulites from the Blanský Les Massif
Urychová, Michala ; Faryad, Shah Wali (advisor) ; Racek, Martin (referee)
English abstract Granulites of Moldanubian Zone are usually characterized by the presence of HP/UHP rocks of mafic and ultramafic compositions. The relationships between UHP rocks and granulites and their metamorphic history are subjects of many discussions. The Blanský Les Granulite Massif is the largest body of this type and includes numerous budines and bodies of serpentinized garnet peridotites, pyroxenites and amphibolic eclogites. PT conditions of granulites and garnet peridotites were estimated using different thermobarometric calculations. Temperatures 850-1050řC and pressures 15-20 kbar were calculated for granulites and 800-1000řC/25-40 kbar were estimated for garnet peridotites. Similar to other granulite bodies in the Moldanubian zone, the Blanský Les Granulite Massif is interpreted either as a segment of orogenic root, which was exhumed by viscous flow from low crust or the rocks reached eclogite facies conditions in the subduction channel first and then were overprinted by granulite facies metamorphism. Maximum depths of emplacement of garnet peridotites and other UHP rocks into granulites are limited by their pressure conditions. For these granulites the pressure is 22 kbar.
