Composition of Phengites in Eclogites and Their Retrogressive Derivatives of the Dabieshan Region：Implication for the Applicability of Phengite Geobarometre

Phengites in ecologites of the Dabieshan region can be divided into three enerations:primary phengite formed during ecologite-facies prograde metamorphism(Phel),phengite formed during the late stage of eclogite-facies retrograde metamorphism(Phe2)and phengite formed during amphibolite-to greenschist-facies diaphthoresis(Phe3).Electron microprobe analyses show that the Si and Fe^2++Mg contents of Phel are unexpectedly lower than those of Phe3.Therefore,much caution should be exerciesed while using the Si content of phengite to estimate the pressure of a retrograde process.
