Περίληψη

Metamorphic rocks of the Crni Vrh and Resavski Humovi area belong to the north-northwestern part of the Serbo-Macedonian Composite Terrane and consist of different types of mica-schists, gneisses and amphibolites. Mica-schists are composed of biotite, muscovite, garnet, staurolite, kyanite, small quantity of Kfeldspar, acid plagioclase and quartz. Accessory minerals are apatite, zircon, tourmaline and ilmenite. Garnets in mica-schists from both localities occur as subhedral to anhedral porphyroblasts from 0.2 to 10mm in size. Most garnets are oriented parallel to the dominant foliation. Garnets from the Crni Vrh mica-schists contain more spesartine component than garnets from Resavski Humovi, while almandine component show opposite tendency. The difference between those garnets is clearly visible, as well as zonality expressed through the increase of almandine component from center to the grain rim. The spesartine component as mentioned above, shows the opposite tendency. Using different geothermometers and geobarometers it was found that mica-schists from Crni Vrh were formed at temperatures from 550-600°C and pressures from 6-6.2 kbar, while micaschists from Resavski Humovi developed at slightly lower temperatures (520-560°C) and at some higher pressures (7-7.3 kbar).
