Abstract In collision-type orogens, where high-pressure and ultrahigh-pressure (HP–UHP) metamorphism usually occurs, deeply subducted continental slabs with eclogitized mafic rocks often undergo recrystallization/overprinting various geothermal gradients after the peak conditions at lower-to-middle-crustal levels. During crustal stabilization, transition from eclogite-to granulite-facies is com...
