Polyphase Deformation of the High-Grade Metamorphic Rocks along the Neusspruit Shear Zone in the Kakamas Domain: Insights into the Processes during the Namaquan Orogeny at the Eastern Margin of the Namaqua Metamorphic Province, South Africa

Polyphase Deformation of the High-Grade Metamorphic Rocks along the Neusspruit Shear Zone in the Kakamas Domain: Insights into the Processes during the Namaquan Orogeny at the Eastern Margin of the Namaqua Metamorphic Province, South Africa

The central part of the Namaqua Metamorphic Province was subjected to intense deformation under high-grade metamorphic conditions up to granulite facies, but also shows greenschist facies overprints denoting the metamorphic nature during the 1.2–1.0 Ga Namaquan Orogeny. This study examines the struc...
