Metamorphic Petrology| Ep 4: Textural Equilibrium
In Episode 4 of our Metamorphic Petrology series, we delve into textural equilibrium in metamorphic rocks. Discover how minerals adjust their shapes, sizes, and orientations to achieve a stable configuration under varying temperature and pressure conditions. We'll explore concepts like grain boundary adjustments, recrystallization, and the significance of equilibrium textures in interpreting metamorphic processes.

      This is for demonstration purposes. But more or less the same. Wherein colors plays an important role during interpretation (e.g., red colors in magnetic methods may show the rock below the surface which are associated with high magnetic values, however, the opposite is true for blue colors).

      The red line represent the standard composition which serves as a frame of reference. This is either Mid-Oceanic Ridge Basalt or Chondrite which have known composition.Then any shift in composition from this line is an anomalous change (enrichment or depletion).
