P-T condition fo deformation from fluid inclusions in mylonitesStructural petrology of fluid inclusions in deformed rocks can be used to identify inclusions entrapped during various stages of deformation. Standard thermobarometry on these inclusions can then provide estimates of the P-T (pressure-temperature) conditions of deformation. The application of this technique is illustrated using fluid inclusions in mylonites from the Quetico Fault Zone, Canada. The inferred P-T conditions fall with the P-T field of mylonitisation derived from isotopic, microstructural and phase equilibrium studies.
