Two Phases of Metamorphism in the High-Pressure Schists in Central Inner Mongolia, China: Implications for the Tectonic Transition From Terminal Subduction of the Paleo-Asian Ocean to Continental Collision

High-pressure (HP) rocks exhumed from subduction zones usually record much warmer geotherms than numerical modelling results, as their peak mineral assemblages are always modified during the exhumation process. The decompressional metamorphic evolution of HP rocks should be considered carefully if u...
