Abstract

The Tarr albitite complex of SE Sinai is structurally controlled by two large shear zones and is spatially associated with a tectonically emplaced ophiolitic suite consisting of hornblendite, gabbro, talc-serpentinite and carbonate. Based on un- or partially metasomatized remnants of protoliths throughout albitite bodies, gradational contacts, ghost structures, and other features, the albitite is shown to have originated by Na-metasomatism.-from Authors
