Dating, Nd-epsilon and thermobarometry estimates for the sample. (a) Concordia diagrams for LA-ICP-MS U–Th–Pb analyses on 18 rutiles (22 analyses) and (b) on 15 zircons (dotted ellipse represents analyse of the metamorphic zircon). Error ellipses are 2σ.(c) Nd-epsilon vs age diagram for the eclogite. Model of Depleted Mantle is from39 (d) P-T-t path of the eclogite sample. Colored boxes correspond to the first paragenesis (Gt-Omph-Amp-Qtz-Rt) and to the second paragenesis (Gt-Cpx-Amp-Pl-Qtz-Ilm) in Perple_X pseudosection. Mineral abbreviations from53.
