Figure 5. Photomicrograph of two gneiss samples from the Chaojian section. (A) Garnet in a groundmass of very fine-grained quartz and feldspar with mylonitic seams marked by biotite and muscovite (labeled B). (B) Thin seams of muscovite and biotite define the mylonitic foliation from a somewhat weakly foliated section in otherwise well-foliated quartz, plagioclase, biotite gneiss with traces of muscovite and a relict staurolite grains. Quartz and plagioclase are mostly recrystallized, but large relict grains are still recognizable.
