33
The role of fluids
34
Fluids fill all pores in a metamorphic rock Reduces effective stresses on the grain-grain contacts - thus favouring brittle deformation Speeds up reactions through –Increasing transport rates –Reduce activation energy for mineral reactions (ie. Acts as a catalyst)
36
Prograde metamorphism produces fluids A= B+H 2 O Retrograde metamorphism consumes fluids B+H 2 O=A Thus dry rocks need external fluid supply to undergo retrogressive metamorphism
40
Prograde metamorphism I Contact metamorphic mudstone in Karoo, South Africa
42
Types of metamorphism Regional metamorphism Contact metamorphism Burial metamorphism Hydrothermal metamorphism Shock metamorphism
