Abstract:
This study reports the investigation of a metamorphic terraine in the Mataketake Range, South Westland, where the high grade axis of the Haast Schist Group abuts the Alpine Fault. P-T conditions accompanying intense deformation of a eugeosynclinal suite has produced epidote-amphibolite, amphibolite facies metamorphism and formed amphibolites, metacherts and quartzofeldspathic gneisses.
