Experimental simulations of anatexis and assimilation involving metapelite and granitic melt

Assimilation of foreign material into a granitic magma body entails mixing between two end-member components: the initially solid assimilant, and the original magma, whose composition is mostly represented by a granitic liquid. In this study, we assess the interactions between a haplogranite liquid made to the composition of the minimum at 200 MPa H2O (Ab38.23Or28.72Qtz33.04Crn00.01) with a schist composed of muscovite and quartz with minor...
