There is a close relation in time, space and origin between the NEJXO,
NEJXDFZ and HFMZ from NEJXP which are located in and constrained by b
oth Yangtze Craton and Cathaysia. These HPMRs principally include (i)
Jd-Q-Ab schist, (ii) Jd-Ab schist, (iii) Jd-Ab schist, and (iv) Gl-sch
ist. The Jd is nearly pure (Jd91-98). Jd surrounded by Ab is separated
from Q and survived due to the reaction between Jd and Q, while Lw en
circled by Ab remains as a pseudomorph composed of CZo + An. The miner
als associated with Jd are Lw, Gl, Ab, Q, CZo, An, Pa, Il, Ru, Sp, Ap,
and Zr. According to the textures, the mineral paragenesis is classif
ied into four groups (i) PI-Am-Q, (ii) Jd-Lw-Gl-Q, (iii) CZo-An-Ab-Q,
(iv) Ab-Ana-Ser-Ur, corresponding to (i) 1.0-0.93 Ga, 250 degrees C, 2
-3 x 10(8)Pa; (ii) 0.93-0.79 Ga, 300-350 degrees C, 5-12 x 10(8) Pa; (
iii) 0.79-0.223 Ga, 350-400-120 degrees C, 12-5-3 x 10(8) Pa; and (iv)
<0.223 Ga, <120-50 degrees C, <3 x 10(8) Pa, in rime, temperature and
pressure respectively. A clockwise P-T-I path is isothermal increasing
in P (up to 45 km)-isothermal decreasing in P (up to 5 km)-nearly iso
bar decreasing in T.
