Outline of Final Research Achievements |
High-pressure intermediate-type metamorphic belt surrounding the late Archean Tanzania Craton experienced Pacific-type subduction zone metamorphism in Orosirian Period at ca. 2 Ga. Epidote-amphibolite-facies meta-pillow basalts of the belt had a mid-ocean ridge basalt-like affinity. Details of eclogite- and high-pressure granulite-facies metamorphism has also brought new insight into Paleoproterozoic Pacific-type subduction processes.
