Abstract

Presents a study that investigated the nature and timing of metamorphism in aluminous metasediment rocks in order to contribute to the understanding of the nature of the tectonic process that shaped the Barberton greenstone belt. Geological setting of the Schapenburg schist belt; Metamorphism of the metaturbidite sequence; Mineral chemistry.
