(b) Photomicrograph of low-strain monzodioritic gneiss comprising intergrowths of euhedral omphacite and Type 1 garnet (g1). (b) Photomicrograph of monzodioritic gneiss of the Malaspina Pluton comprising diopside, Type 1 and Type 2 garnet (g2) coronae. Samples of the Malaspina Pluton are nearly identical in textures and modes24.
