Abstract

Microstructural, submicrostructuraland lattice preferred orientation ananlyses of hornblende porphyroclasts and matrix of amphibolitic mylonites formed in the middle crustal level from Diancangshan, western Yunnan, China New, give evidence for dynamic recrystallizationmainly controlledby a combinationof(IOO)[OOI]-twinningand dislocationgliding or climbing. We suggestto name this specific combinationof deformationmechanisms as 'Twinning Nucleation Recrystallization (TNR) '.
