Epidiorite–limestone contact relations at Burawai, Hazara District, West Pakistan

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  14 March 2018

Summary

Special mineral assemblages in calcareous rocks 0–6 ft from the contact of an epidiorite sill are interpreted as the result of polymetamorphism–regional metamorphism superimposed on an earlier thermal metamorphism in which metasomatism, especially migration of potassium, was important.
